Say yes and you’ll be moved from the Quest environment to the PC Oculus environment. Inside the headset, you’ll see a prompt asking you whether you want to enable Oculus Link. Once you’ve reached the “Setup Complete” screen, click close and then put on your still-connected headset. You can still play on USB 2, but you’ll get a more compressed image and performance may not be as consistent. If you’re using a USB 2 connection, you’ll get a warning. We strongly recommend you do this, to make sure that you’ve got enough real-world bandwidth to get the best experience. Next, you’ll be given the opportunity to test your cable. Be sure to use a USB 3 port if you’re using a USB 3 cable. Now, plug one end of your cable into the PC and the other end into your Quest.

For a wired connection, choose “Link (Cable).” We’ll handle Air Link (Wireless) separately below.
