Description Roberto 2023-08-03 17:02:10 UTC
SUMMARY

Presently kdeconnect works only when I'm connected to my router via wifi. However, it should work also when I'm connected to my LAN through my router VPN service, either using some wifi access point or using cellular network.
This would enable to send commands to my PC when I'm out of home.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  pair to some device under the same LAN
2.  using cell network, connect to that LAN using VPN
3.  kdeconnect won't find the device even if it's the same LAN

OBSERVED RESULT
kdeconnect says that I must connect using wifi

EXPECTED RESULT
it should detect the already-paired devices when I'm under the same LAN

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: debian sid
