Skybox Airscreen throws error "Failed to connect to PC"

bazopenguin

I can't connect Airscreen from my Quest 2 to my Windows 11 desktop. I tried the following: I gave Skybox firewall exceptions for inbound and outbound traffic, disabled the firewall, forwarded Port 6888 from the router, turned on Media Streaming in Windows, and tried restarting both my Quest 2 and desktop multiple times with the same result every time.
I'm using both the latest version app from the Oculus store and the latest Windows app version.

Hello,

Please further check SKYBOX version on your Quest 2.

If there's a Santa hat on the logo when you launch SKYBOX on your Quest 2, it is beta version 1.1.0.

If you encounter this issue on version 1.0.5 (without Santa hat), you can follow the steps to switch to beta version 1.1.0 and see if the connection issue still remains.

Through Oculus app:
Open Oculus app, and tap your Profile picture.
Go to My Library and select SKYBOX VR Player.
Scroll down and tap Version to open the Version notes window.
Select your preferred version.

Through Oculus website:
Go to oculus.com and find SKYBOX VR Player.
Scroll down to find Version information.
Click on the down arrow sign to switch versions.

Let us know if you need further help!

All the best,
Lucy
