--- Comment #5 from Matthijs Tijink <matthijstij...@gmail.com> --- I think the problem might be that connecting to a server which is remotely connected through VPN is impossible (after all: how should the VPN know which remote VPN connection it should go to?). KDE Connect works by sending an UDP broadcast as you mentioned, and direct UDP packets to the configured ip addresses (only on Android). The other device reacts by setting up a TCP connection to the source of the UDP packet. So both devices act like a server in this setting up process. I hope it's somewhat clear what I mean. But we can do something to see what really happens. Can you send the following logs (both is best, but may not be necessary): Desktop: 1. Kill the running kdeconnectd process 2. Run "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kdeconnectd" from the command line and copy the output. Try refreshing from both the Android app and from the desktop KDE Connect settings. Android: 1. Connect your phone using USB to any computer, and run "adb logcat". A lot of output will appear, but anything before you open KDE Connect is irrelevant. You may need to install some packages to run the "adb" command. 2. Try refreshing from both the Android app and from the desktop KDE Connect settings and copy the resulting log. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
