Base stations' LEDs green, but not tracking
So, this issue just started happening. Both of my base stations have green LEDs as though they were functioning. However, SteamVR is not detecting them, but sometimes just one is detected. Has anyone had similar problems or a solution?

Is it always the same one that is not detected?
Is the one that is not detected spinning and emitting IR light? Does the green LED look dimmer than the other one?
Unplugging the power then and replugging should get a base station working again even if it is asleep. You might try disabling power management if the problem persists.

Is the headset and controllers who see the bases, not steamvr. I assume you let them in the middle of the room. Sorry if this is obvious to you, but sometimes it helps.

It will work for maybe a few seconds at a time right when i boot it up, but after about a minute, the HMD screen grays out and then comes back intermittenly until one of the base stations stops working. It will then start and stop working a few times, but the controller tracking and head tracking are incredibly spotty. It isnt the same one each time. Ive tried changing their position, updating firmware, and restarting my machine several times but nothing seems to work. Would I be best off restarting? If this is a known issue a fix would be great.

Have you tried to use only one base set as A?
