I just bought a Xbox One S Controller to replace my broken wired 360 pad which served me for something like a decade. I updated the controller and my Windows 10 install to the required build (Anniversary Update) The controller works great when it stays connected. It automatically is recognized in Steam BGM. All the games I've tried required no setup, but the controller will only stay connected if it is within about 3 feet (with line of sight) of the wireless BlueTooth USB dongle. I also replaced the batteries so I don't think it's a power issue. Granted the BT USB dongle is a dinky little POS I've had for years and could the root of the problem, although it worked fine with my DS4, but I was wondering if anyone else had this issue and could provide any simple fixed beyond buying a new dongle.
