    PS5 controller won't connect via bluetooth after 8 pm (central time)


    Hello,

    Two days in a row now I have had my Ps5 controller work all through the day but around 8 PM, it disconnects and will not reconnect. The computer will find it and say connected, but the controller itself shuts off? I've only used the controller these 2 days and its done the exact same thing both days.

    Currently, the bluetooth window says the controller is connected. When it is connected and functioning, the controller will have lights remain on.

    everytime i run the bluetooth troubleshooter, it says "check bluetooth radio status - fixed" but I can run this over and over and over and it always says fixed. does it keep breaking?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers. I've attempted to upgrade the driver, Intel Wireless bluetooth, but even though the .exe file says it successfully installed the device manager doesn't show the updated firmware version.

    I'm on windows 10 build 19043, windows update says I am on the most current version.

    I have set the bluetooth services to "automatic" and restarted them several times

    I've rebooted the computer, even left it off overnight.

    I've turned off all bluetooth in the house. But to be clear, my controller works all day with nothing specifically turned off.

    I have the antenna for my motherboard on the correct position. I know this because before I did, the bluetooth only worked within about 5 inches of the computer.

    I've tried removing my mouse and keyboard entirely and pairing the controller.

    I've tried factory resetting the controller.

    I am at my absolute wit's end. This problem makes no sense. Please, Help.

    :)

    So get steam support

    Since its a steam driver

    Steam has to support bluetooth too you know

    Ok you are saying it works with steam till 8pm then quits since it has to work with steam or ds4win why not ask them for support

    It's still.a third party driver which you need to.get support from.steam

    Steam.has to.havr.input drivers for bluetooth

    Since your steam is running the drivers you need to ask them or your Bluetooth manufacturer and plus disable antivirus

    I.wouldn't.touch the antenna that's not what you think it is.

    Bluetooth doesn't have an antenna they are flat devices

    However Wi-Fi cards arent

    Unless you bought a card with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to go into your PC which case you still have to goto your device manufacturer in this case both steam and your Bluetooth card maker

    They are the best to provide support

    But pc Bluetooth adapters that go into usb don't have antennas which you really should be using

    They cost less then 10 bucks and yes I used them on steam for my two dual sense controllers

    Ps5 dual sense requirements are bluetooth 4 or higher with 5 being perfered

    I use my wireless mouse bluetooth adapters personally

    MS doesn't write bluetooth drivers it's your manufacturer of your card and steam if that's what your using

    If xbox well you need ds4win support for that

    Also since you are saying it quits at night after all day usage are you forgetting to recharge in between those things are serious battery drains? And yes that can cause disconnections

    I have the same issue with ps5 and my steam games you have to keep them charged to stay connected after playing all day

    This is also part of sonys basic troubleshooting

    Fyi after lots of use the batteries do wear down unlike.xbox controllers you cant replace.the batteries

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    I recommend disabling as many third-party apps as possible, disabling antivirus and doing a clean boot.

    If the problem persists, contact your device manufacturer.

    This is not the issue.

    Remember, it works fine all day on steam and quits at night. I just downloaded ds4win just to make sure.

    Steam has ps5 controller drivers built it so as long as the bluetooth is connected to the controller its good to go.

    Did you report this issue to ds4win? Or steam whichever service you use

    Ds4win and steam is the only way to use a dual sense controller because sony doesn't provide offical drivers for anything but their products which is steam or PlayStation

    Ds4win is a button mapping app for ps controllers for windows and non steam titles

    In order to use it on steam you MUST download the beta drivers under steam settings

    Otherwise you won't have the full functions of the dual sense it eould be treated like a gamepad without the haptic or some of the controlls
