Hey there, 

 

We are so happy to hear that you and your son joined the Oculus family! We can't wait for you to be able to explore all that VR has to offer. 

 

We recommend you factory reset the device and attempt setting it up again. 

 

To factory reset your Quest 2: 

  • Turn off your headset.

  • Hold the power and volume (-) button on your headset down simultaneously until the boot screen loads on your headset.

  • Use the volume buttons on your headset to highlight Factory Reset and press the power button.

  • Use the volume buttons on your headset to highlight Yes and press the power button.

If you are still experiencing this issue after the reset, we would love to investigate this matter further with you via a support ticket
