Why can't VIVE Flow find my phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot?
It may be because the Wi-Fi hotspot band of your phone is set to 2.4 GHz. When using a phone
controller with VIVE Flow, VIVE Flow can only connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot using the 5 GHz band.
Check the table below to see how to change your phone's Wi-Fi hotspot band to 5 GHz.
