To carry out this task, we will be using the open-source StadiaWireless Tool [GitHub link]. Even when the Stadia servers shut down, you will still be able to use the controllers as they would connect to a local server running on your PC using sockets instead of the Google servers. As far as its usage instruction goes, we will first connect the controller to your mobile via USB cable and then it to the PC-based server from the phone via WiFi.

So while there will be a wired connection between the controller and your phone, it will be entirely wireless between the PC and your controller.
