Actually the solution is to turn on controller after launched Stadia app on Google TV. In this case connects every time without problem. This should be indicated somewhere.

Hi @RXShorty, I have a 2.4/5GHz mixed network. BTW this could be an answer why it sometimes work, but please. It is 2021, nobody have dedicated 2.4GHz network.

Why is so hard to connect a Stadia controller?

My Chromecast with Google TV is connected to the network with cable. I successfully paired my Stadia controller to Chromecast with my phone to my home network (cable + wifi is the same network). Works wonderfully. Until I restart. Then controller wont connect anymore. It just blinks and can not connect. Great. I can re do the pairing procedure then works for that session, then next day can not connect.

Comparing this to my PS4 controller which just connects with bluetooth and works reliable and I can even control my whole Google TV with it, not just Stadia. Now, compare the two. PS4 clearly wins.
