I find Air Link to be finicky enough that I hardly ever use it. Once it's actually working it's pretty great, but the dance I have to do to enable the feature on the headset, enable the feature in Oculus Home (the settings don't persist forever for some reason), then get Steam VR to be happy with it... it's a lot of clicks (both in the real world on mouse/keyboard, then in the headset with the controllers, and back out and in again when something isn't working), often requires rebooting the PC or Quest or both, and is just a UX disaster overall.
- rjh29 4y agoThat's fair, I have only used it briefly so far (only just bought a decent PC). That is a shame to hear!
- nsxwolf 4y agoNow, I also bought a really long USB-C cable with a 90-degree angle connector to make it fit a bit nicer, and I can use Link instead of Air Link, cutting out a bunch of steps getting it going. That works pretty reliably, and has better video quality. Corded, obviously, but it's still better than the old Vive umbilical cord, and fine for sit-down games like Elite.
