Your firewall needs to open input TCP
ports 1716, 1739-1741
KDE Connect app on your phone will use TCP
ports >1023
as source port
You also need to allow input UDP
port 1716.
KDE Connect app on your phone will use UDP
1716 as well as source port.
If you’re blocking outbound then you also need to allow TCP
output to ports 1716, 1739-1740
and UDP
to 1716
Even though you disabled firewall you need to make sure no rules from nftables
or iptables
exist such as default block rules.
While trying to connect you need to open up and tail firewall log to observe dropped traffic.
I don’t know how this is done with firewalld
but with nftables
you configure logging to separate file.
