Setup
Wi-Fi Streaming
Play PC VR games from your Mac on Quest, PICO or Apple Vision Pro without a cable, over a 5 GHz or 6 GHz Wi-Fi network, with MoltenVR's own streaming.Wi-Fi streaming lets you play with no cable between the Mac and the headset. There is nothing extra to install: the headset app finds your Mac over Bonjour or the local network.
Network setup
Put the Mac on a fast network
Ethernet is best. On Wi-Fi, join the 5 GHz or 6 GHz band; if your router has separate network names per band, pick that one explicitly.
Join the same network on the headset
Both devices must be on the same local network.
Open the MoltenVR headset app
It finds your Mac on the network. If you haven't paired yet, pair once with the PIN shown on the Mac.
Find best settings
Press Find best settings in MoltenVR. It tests your Wi-Fi and your Mac, then picks resolution, refresh rate and codec.
Wi-Fi vs. USB
| Wi-Fi | USB-C cable | |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Same network, that's it | Data cable, USB debugging |
| Codecs | HEVC, H.264 | HEVC, H.264, PyroWave |
| Latency | Slightly higher | Lowest |
| Freedom of movement | Cable-free | Limited by cable length |
Plug in a cable while you're streaming over Wi-Fi and the session moves to USB on its own.
