do you have the steam app installed on your headset? get that from the quest store, it's free. then you open it and all of the VR games you get from steam show up in it.


Skip the first step

Install the oculus drivers and then install SteamVR




I finally got it working, brehs. My internet wifi was being a lil shaky, but from what I saw for the 5 minutes I logged on, I wasn't impressed.

What do y'all normally do? Is it basically a VR google map street view?

If you are not impressed by Google Earth VR then you are either brain damaged or doing it wrong. When you first start out you can change the way you look at the world. Do that first when it prompts you. then you can fly around the world like Super Man. Then you can take it to the Google maps street view and walk around anyplace in the world. I absolutely love Google Earth VR.

I'm probably doing it wrong :aicmon:

My wifi signal was acting up last night so there wasn't a seamless viewing experience for me. There was a huge lag while trying to view everything.

Do yall connect your quest to the computer with a cord or using the oculus air wifi feature?

Wireless from the day I got it since Air link was already out and had the bugs worked out when I got my headset. You have to use 5ghz Wifi in case you didn't know.

I had to cop a wifi 6 router, I have this one below ,,,,,, my 5 GHz channel is dedicated to quest 2, meaning I have no other devices on this network.
All my devices are on my 2,4 Ghz channel


have devices on the same network as the quest will lag in air link
