Solution wireless for Corsair One?
I don't see any clear way to connect the Vive Wireless adapter to a PC without a PCI-E slot. It might work with a USB-C to Thunderbolt adapter or via a hub, but it's not straightforward. Let me know if you'd like more options.
It means they don’t have additional PCIe slots beyond the standard ones. The single PCIe slot is typically used for connecting high-speed components like NVMe drives or certain graphics cards.
The TP Cast wireless adapter works without needing an extra card. It doesn’t match the official version in quality, though it gets the job done. Regarding the official setup, does your motherboard have an empty m.2 port? If it does and supports PCIe (which most do), you could convert it to a full PCIe slot. Otherwise, you might consider building a custom solution using a second-hand Intel WiGig card—just keep in mind it could be tricky and costly.
The TP Cast Wireless kit includes a transmitter that connects to your Vive’s link box, a router you link via Ethernet to your computer or laptop (a USB to Ethernet adapter works if needed) and a receiver built into the headset. It relies on standard HDMI and power cables from the link box for the transmitter, while using WiGig to send video directly to the headset without needing WiFi. The USB data travels back through a specially configured router included with the package. I’m not sure why this setup was chosen—it feels a bit cumbersome. As mentioned, you can use a USB-Ethernet adapter and set up a local link between your PC and the router (instructions are provided). Then install software that translates Ethernet frames into motion data. The system uses a 5GHz WiFi connection for some reason. This method is somewhat complicated to configure and isn’t as seamless as the official adapter, but it works with regular Vive accessories and an Ethernet connection.
The ITX motherboard in the Corsair One does have an unused M.2 slot. It’s possible to connect it externally via a PCIe adapter, though it might require some setup. This isn’t impossible, but make sure you check compatibility details before proceeding. Let me know if you need more clarity!
It looks quite risky. Think about the impact it had on that individual! (Taking things seriously…) Connecting an external USB 3.0 to PCI might be the best option unless you're using a different Wi-Fi method. Still, I don't know for sure if that would function.
