Since my laptop has one of those built-in wifi adapters that has bad Linux firmware, I switched to one of the recommended WiFi USB sticks. It’s been working great, but KDE Connect isn’t working at all with it. Even though I have my paired phone right up next to it, they won’t see or connect to each other. I did try manual IP pairing in the app. Strangely, I also enabled bluetooth on both, and they won’t connect that way – but this problem only started when I switched to the USB WiFi adapter.
Anyone know what I can do to resolve this?
