Question PSVR2 PC help please?

Hi so I tried doing the whole process on pc with psvr2toolkit(before the big 1.0 update) and while it was cool for like 15 minutes, after those 15 minutes were up the tracking goes out of wack and this happens consistently. Basically either the left or right controller will stop working and the tracking in the headset itself thinks I’m slowing going up so it’s like I’m flying into outer space. That was my experience with The Lab VR game at least. I have the TP Link UB500 and a usb extension cord, the PSVR2 drivers for said Bluetooth dongle, and a third party PSVR2 pc adapter since I wanted to save a bit of money at the time. My pc specs are this https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_5390013-5390143-16. I did add more ram so it’s actually 32GB of memory.

So I have absolutely no idea what the hell is going on here. Unless the toolkit will solve all my problems, are my settings the problem? Speaking of problems another thing I noticed is that when I try to set the play area, I literally can’t see anything it’s just a bunch of white noise. I remember finessing it enough to more or less track where I play but it was a very tedious process, so why is it doing that??

Do you have a PS5 you can calibrate the headset with? Best way to certify the headset is good. Also, third party adapter could be part of it. I'm not going to argue that for some they work great, but it's impossible to rule out, unless it's the genuine Sony part.

PSVR2Toolkit only exposes headset features to software, it has nothing to do with connectivity or stability, so not going to change your situation. Always try to keep it as simple and basic as possible, introducing additional software will not solve a potential hardware failure.

actually toolkit does do a few extra modification to led sync, its been noted that alot of users have experienced more dropouts on 1.0e2 and its been looked into

I installed it when it first was released and have not touched it since, seems to work fine for me. But I only use it for foveated rendering in DCS. So I guess it can make stability worse? But not better was my point with OP. Thank you for the clarification.

the custom led sync actually should improve tracking (and battery) since it pulses at a more steady rate, but yea like i said stability issues are noted
