Description Sylvain Paré 2018-02-09 14:04:41 UTC

Installed two laptops with kubuntu lastly in our enterprise.
Then our admin team brought us bask this issue : our proxy wrote 5Go of acces.log in a week because kdeconnect tried to connect between the two laptops.
We had to uninstall kdeconnect.
I let you imagine how easy it was to evangelize kde to our admin team then.

Well, you can't blame KDE Connect for trying to do what it is supposed to do (connect devices).

What kind of solution are you looking for?

Comment 2 Sylvain Paré 2018-02-13 22:06:27 UTC

Thanks for your reply.
Well why 5 Go in a week ?! It is a bit two much.
Perhaps It could try to detect and stop trying to connect.

Comment 3 Matthijs Tijink 2018-02-25 11:36:26 UTC

KDE Connect shouldn't actually send much traffic; it only tries to connect when the network connection status changes (so not very often).

Can you provide more details of the network setup?

If this is still an issue can you please provide the information requested in Comment 3.

I'm setting status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "reported" or "resolved" when you respond, thanks.
