Bug ID: 427310
Summary: device discovery not working in ipv6-only network
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: daniel-other+kde...@dadosch.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Currently, device discovery seems to only work in an network with ipv4,
probably due to the broadcast address used in lanlinkprovider.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a ipv6-only network.
2. Have two kdeconnect-devices.
OBSERVED RESULT
They won't automatically discover each other. Only if you add one using a
hostname, it works.
EXPECTED RESULT
Device discovery should also work in an ipv6-only network. I've tested it with
multiple devices and am quite sure this isn't a network configuration mistake
causing this bug.
