    Xbox One X controller on Steam Link via bluetooth


    Hi, I bought an Xbox One Series X controller to play on PC and Steam Link.

    On my Windows PC I have no issue: controller works both via USB-C and Bluetooth, I can update it and all.

    On Steam Link it works via USB-C cable, and almost connect on Bluetooth, but it keep losing Bluetooth connection as soon as it is recognized by the Steam Link.

    From this post on Steam community I understood that Valve worked on this directly with Microsoft personnel, that have a fix for this, but it's not clear when or if this fix will be distributed via the controller firmware updates:

    Can you give me more info about this? Will this be fixed in the upcoming controller firmware updates?

    :)

    How to use Xbox Elite Series 2 audio jack while wirelessly connected to Win 10 PC?

    Hi,

    The 3.5mm headphone jack on Xbox One/Series X|S controllers (including Elite controllers) does not work when connected via Bluetooth. It will only work via USB or the official Xbox wireless adaptor.

    Adapter Xbox 360 for PC and new controller.

    Hi,

    I’m Killing Skids

    The Answer Is Yes as Long As it has Bluetooth or wireless connection
    Hi,

    That's not quite right. Apologies for quoting you.

    The Xbox 360 controller uses a proprietary wireless technology, it's not Bluetooth and the old adaptors won't work with a modern controller like the Xbox One or Series X|S controllers.

    Unlike Xbox 360 wireless controllers, Xbox One and Series controllers can also be connected via USB cable. Old Xbox One controllers use Micro USB, Series Controllers are USB C.

    To use an Xbox One/ Series controller via wireless on a PC and get basic functionality, all you need to do is connect the controller via Bluetooth. If your PC doesn't have Bluetooth then you'll need to buy a Bluetooth USB dongle, they're very cheap, less than $10. I'm from the UK and I connect my Series X controller to my PC via BT dongle I purchased from Amazon for about £5.

    For extra wireless features you'll need the Xbox One Wireless Adaptor for Windows 10. Unfortunately, the official Microsoft branded adaptors are now quite rare.

    No, not necessarily. The Xbox One Wireless adapter has extra functionality, but for basic wireless use you can connect via Bluetooth. If your PC doesn't have Bluetooth a BT dongle can be purchased for less than $10/€7.

    Note that the Xbox One controllers can also be connected via USB cable. The Xbox One uses a Micro USB cable, Series X controllers are USB C.

    Xbox One gamepad disconnects after connecting other controller.

    One thing I just found out, the Xbox pad works with others when connected with a cable, previously I was using a bluetooth adapter which came with the controller.

    Any chance of fixing it to work via bluetooth? As in, Xbox controller via bluetooth, other controller via cable.

    I'm trying to connect a ps3 controller to my pc but it isn't showing up at the control panel, what do I do?

    you need a program like ds4 to be able to use it, steam has its own drivers for that controller. either use the controller wired or via bluetooth with ds4
