Vive Wireless Adapter...Not Compatible with Laptop's, Seriously?

[saimthomus]

In a few occasions, your connector will expect updates to work legitimately. A dated connector driver won't be perfect with more current working frameworks. Ensure the connector is associated with your workstation. Open your workstation's control board and find the connector. Double tap to open the connector programming and check for updates that are sitting tight for a live push. You can likewise check the maker's site to guarantee you have the most recent driver variant introduced BigPond Contact Phone Number.

Could this be an option https://www.amazon.com/Mini-PCI-Adapter-card-Module/dp/B01EMIOBD2 (PCI-e to USB adapter)?

I am waiting someone answers this question. If I have a GTX 1070 or GTX 1080 labtop (like Alienware) then can I use a usb to pci-e for the wireless adapter?

In short: No.

Longer answer: If it was possible to push all that data through USB to begin with, WiGig and Intel never would have bothered with the PCIe card component. There's just so much data being crammed through, development was required to use the PCIe card to provide the best performance. In general, adapters are going to reduce performance and quality as well, so we can't recommend it. The only Vive-related circumstance in which I'd recommend an adapter is if you had a Vive Pro with a laptop that didn't have a DP or mDP port, you could instead, use a mDP to USB-C adapter.

 

Thank you,

Thank you for the answer John. Now I am thiniking to try this:

Any comments?

Both of these items promote a specific straightforwardness with regards to setup, however, there are some additional means that for the most part get disregarded. On account of the new official Vive connector, you should have an additional PCIe 1x space in your PC for an Intel WiGig card, which gets associated through cajoling link to a radio wire. That radio wire can be mounted or can sit close to your PC, as long as it has a perspective on your headset and appended remote recipient.

The greatest issue here is having an additional PCIe opening in your PC. The individuals who don't should get imaginative, regardless of whether with something like an M.2 to PCIe connector card or outer cove. There's not yet any affirmation that something besides a standard PCIe opening will work with the WiGig card, so in case you're screwed over thanks to a workaround just, I'd hold up until there is an affirmation that different techniques work Jaisalmer deluxe tents tariff

I know its not supposed to be compatible with a laptop.  I am just curious because I am getting this laptop with these specs and I do not understand why it wouldn't work (not a computer hardware) specialist.  Please advise if it could work with this laptop:

"I`m willing to bet that at least half of VR users are hooked into their laptops". I am wondering who uses laptop for VR? I mean you require a decent setup to play VR games, and laptops are not known for their power. 

 

More like 1% of users have their VR set connected to a laptop.

The official wireless adapter is desktop hw architecture. It is a desktop sized PCI-E card and requires a PCI-E slot. It physically won't fit in your laptop (it's relatively pretty large for a laptop) nor will it fit any laptop as it's a desktop solution.

 

There's no way to use some sort of external enclosure as there are driver and hardware architecture conflicts which wholesale exclude most mobile architecture from being compatible.

I'm pretty sure is still living in 2014 or 2015. Must have time travelled to the future, bought a HTC Vice, and then travelled back.
