Immersed WiFi Direct for Windows

If you have WiFi built-in or are using a WiFi USB adapter, the Immersed Agent will detect it and give you the option to enable WiFi Direct. Follow these steps to get WiFi Direct up and running.

Note: Some WiFi USB wireless adapters need to be manually set to utilize 5GHz channels. This can be done via Device Manager -> Network adapters -> Properties.

1. Click on “Wi-Fi Direct” to open the Wi-Fi Direct window then click “Start”. Remember the Wi-Fi Name and Password for later.

2. Once started, your Mobile hotspot will turn on. You can verify in Settings>Network and Internet>Mobile hotspot.

3. Get into your headset and go the the Oculus home menu. Go to Settings>WiFi and look for the new network (Immersed-WiFi). Select it and then enter the password from earlier.

4. Once connected, launch Immersed, head to the Monitors menu in Immersed and connect to your computer!
