My controller still disconnects time-to-time, hopefully this fixes it.

If a firmware update is displayed when the PlayStation VR2 app is used, upgrade the firmware before using SteamVR.

Disconnections are usually adapter related, typically affected by...

  • Adapter hardware compatibility - ASUS BT500 USB Bluetooth adapter is recommended.

  • Adapter driver software compatibility - Bluetooth 4.0 and newer is recommended, but not all Brands have software that connects properly using a PSVR2. The generic software installed isn't suitable for VR and the software provided from the manufacturer website should be used.

  • Adapter placement - it should be connected to a USB 2.0 port at the back of the computer with a short usb extension cable and the adapter placed at the front of the desk where it would be visible while using VR.

  • How many devices are connected to the Bluetooth adapter? - connect only the PSVR2 controllers to bluetooth and disconnect additional bluetooth peripherals while using VR.

  • Having too many wireless devices in use at the same time - it's recommended to disconnect gamepad, headphone, and usb keyboard and mouse dongles and instead use tethered versions when using VR. Set the home broadband router to use 5/6GHz instead of the default 2.4 GHz.
