The IP address gets changed, so its not feasible to keep > adding ip address in kde app. oh yes. since i added the last comment, i saw the same problem happening again. turns out my stock android 11 motorola does the same. it had changed the IP address of the laptop to 192.168.166.215 and hence it was failing. i changed that to updated ip in kde connect and now its working again but i agree, this is a terrible workaround because dynamic ip is the norm and we should expect kde connect to understand that, dunno why its happening -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
