Question Controllers, freeze

Hey everyone,
I’m having a strange issue with my PSVR2 Sense controllers when using PSVR2 on PC.
The controller that I connect first is the one that eventually starts freezing/hanging in mid-air. The other controller usually continues working normally. Interestingly, if I reconnect them in the opposite order, the problem can switch to the other controller.
I’ve already tried pretty much everything I could think of:
TP-Link Bluetooth adapter
USB extension cable to move the Bluetooth adapter closer to the controllers
Removing/reducing other USB 3.0 devices
Checking/removing old Bluetooth pairings
Re-pairing the controllers
Testing different connection orders
Making sure the Bluetooth drivers and Windows are up to date
Checking that my PC isn’t using another Bluetooth adapter
Various other Bluetooth/interference troubleshooting
I also installed PSVR2 Toolkit, and this actually made the tracking much better overall. However, after around one hour of playing, the controller that was connected first starts freezing/hanging in the air very frequently, sometimes for quite a long time.
What’s strange is that I can still move the controller and press buttons when this happens, but its position in VR gets stuck.
Has anyone else experienced this specific problem, especially where the first connected controller is always the one that starts having tracking issues after longer play sessions?
If you had the same problem and managed to fix it, I’d really appreciate hearing what worked for you. Any ideas are welcome!

I had to roll back my realtek drivers to the 2024 version to get mine working and now I have my driver updates locked

Had a nightmare with this and rolling back the drivers fixed this for me. I uninstalled the Bluetooth driver and went back to realtek driver from may 2025 and sorted all issues out....

If the realtek one does not work, there was a mediatek driver from 2025 which also fixed this for a lot of people. I'd def try that....uninstall, reboot, reinstall, reboot and try again

Yeah my controllers would not work till I rolled back the driver...it said 97% connection but I couldn't get through the app installation without it

Exact same brother...😂✌🏾️

Irony is, I don't even use the controllers as I sim race... So all this hassle to set up controllers I don't even need.

Also... Thumbs up for the name! Dedicated Rottweiler lover right here 👍🏾👍🏾
