    Mbrown278 got a reaction from LIGISTX in Help with configuring network access to NAS   
    Thanks, yeah I don't know the specifics behind how switches cause interferance with VR, or if they even do, but I had loads of problems (which I know could be caused by a number of things, and cutting out the switches was one of the things I changed as an attempt as a part of changing multiple things. I can't remember if I changed things and tested one by one, as that problem solving was a year or two ago. Since I got the Pico Neo 3 link a couple of months ago, I have mainly been doing sim racing, sat down in one place so put my PC there and used the headset in wired mode. I tried wireless the last two nights to play some other games and it was glitchy and all sorts, which due to the way the Pico headset does wireless (must be on the same network as the PC), I used my main router, through the switches etc. So today wired up my wifi 6 router direct to the PC to try and see if that improved things and came across these other issues. My old VR headset (Quest 2), had an app called Virtual Desktop, which would allow you to connect to your PC across multiple networks automatically whether they were external networks or not. That app isn't yet available for the Pico, but apparently will be sometime in the next few months, but didn't want to wait until then if I could sort it now. That app does seem to indicate though that the switches shouldn't be an issue, but it was actually the developers on discord who recommended going direct to the pc and cutting out switches etc.
     
    After your advice though, and after doing some searching I managed to find the option to set the router as AP, once that was set everything was automatically sorted and it kept the specific SSID I wanted for the wifi 6 router. Also the access to the NAS/PC is sorted! Works without any further adjustment etc, so thank you both! 
    Now I just need to test the wireless VR and see if it has improved - thank you 🙂

    You can usually find an Oculus Go pretty cheap secondhand. Using Virtual Desktop should give you the functionality you're after. I don't really know of a smaller, less expensive option.
