Description Sethox 2018-04-13 12:43:02 UTC 
I wish for an option to have in the KDE Connect application is to gain information when something failed to send (for both phone and desktop).

I have the ports open for my firewall open (both UDP & TCP). Everything besides transfer file works (it works when I flush my firewall).

On that note I also noticed that this application sends fragmented packages, I have a filter to filter out such packages (which means the rule to make it work I have to have the ports open above these rules, this is a non-issue):

iptables -A INPUT -m state --state INVALID -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p TCP --tcp-flags ALL ALL -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p TCP --tcp-flags ALL NONE -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p TCP ! --syn -m state --state NEW -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type address-mask-request -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type timestamp-request -j DROP

Minor issue but a good option in settings would be appreciated.

I don't think this says anything but I am using KDE connect on Solus. Sorry for being extra clear on my description.

Which ports did you open? KDE Connect uses additional ports for transferring files, see https://community.kde.org/KDEConnect#I_have_two_devices_running_KDE_Connect_on_the_same_network.2C_but_they_can.27t_see_each_other

I don't know what fragmented packages are, but we use normal SSL over TCP. Or are you talking about UDP?

You are talking about an option to gain information, could you elaborate on that, because it's currently unclear to me.
