Sadly i cannot use air link anymore on my quest 2. 😞
When i connect to the PC, the "white loader" it is very slow, image makes me dizzy, controllers are slow reacting hardly can select QUIT air link. It was working perfectly before (!!!), so it is not my PC being low spec (i9-9900k-32Gb, RTX3080ti, Asus gaming Wifi6 router on 1gbps ethernet to PC, nothing else on the wifi6 network).
The oculus upgraded itself to v39, but i dont remember if problem began after that or not (probably). I also installed the latest nvidia drivers today, but no remedy. It works with the USB cable though.
Bought virtual desktop yesterday which also works fine, but i would prefer air link (VD seems to have higher overhead and its frame rate doubler "spacewarp" is a joke).
So something went wrong, i cant get airlink to work properly :(. Did use it in the past months without any problems and now its a nightmare.

Hey buddy, have you managed to fix the problem? I'm facing the same issues, after v39 update

Sadly none of the above tips helped.
No other software running (fresh windows start), no firewall, no PTC, no errors (error messages) of any kind.
This is how it looks like:

Video is on default graphics preferences (72Hz, 1.0x resolution).
No bandwidth problems on the wifi (virtual desktop works, i just dont like it).

This honestly might be a V39 problem. This issue is present on the Quest 1 as well but instead of it being a second or two of delay, its 5-7 seconds delayed. Image looks clear, but the drawback is delay. Hopefully this gets fixed sooner or later, as it seems it might be a user to user thing since there are a few people who I know who use airlink as well but have no present problems.
I hope your problem gets fixed somehow!

Was actually having the same issue the other day which was alleviated by switching to a wired connection instead of wifi. In my experience, the interface was sluggish and reacted slowly, sometimes looking around would cause screen tear so I had to use virtual desktop for that time. Once I switched to an ethernet cable though, everything was running smoothly. My experiences seem to tell me that even though you may have good bandwidth, there's still issues with airlink unless you're wired, which is probably because the quest tries to render at full resolution instead of adjusting the resolution based on connection like virtual desktop.

Yes, image is clear here, too (can see the anti aliasing work (flicker at the max screen refresh rate) just like before) but the delay is quite challenging ;).

I would definitely try a wired connection to see if anything changes. The delay should be fixed once you do but let us know your findings

Wired (USB) connection works perfectly.
Air Link was working perfectly too (when i last played with it).

Yeah, Im having similar issue, and i remember 100% like around 1 month it was running perfectly (same pc with 3080ti, same wifi6 router). 200mbps fixed, not a single problem. Now its lagging with black screens on the sides, cant track the controllers, everything is messed up. It happens to me cinside the game, constantly during the level loading, and then during the gameplay itself as well very often. With cable connection everything runs perfectly smoooth. And I said, it wasnt like this before, i guess it has something to do with v39 firmware.
