Syncthing on Boox eReader: no route to host

Hi, I use syncthing to sync data between Mac/Linux/Android.

I recently bought a Boox Go 7 eReader, installed syncthing on it (the same that I have on my Android smartphone) and unfortunately it doesn’t work. I added the Boox device to my Mac, shared a folder, and the Mac reports 192.168.1.130: no route to host.

192.168.1.130 is the IP address of the boox device

The Mac can connect to the Boox, though:

$ nc -vnzu 192.168.1.130 21035
Connection to 192.168.1.130 port 21035 [udp/*] succeeded!

Software versions

syncthing-mac: 1.30.0 running on macOS Sequoia 15.7.2

syncthing-fork (android): 2.0.011.02

What should I be trying next?

What results do you get from ping and traceroute?

Ping: I can successfully ping the eReader from my Mac

Traceroute:

$ traceroute 192.168.1.130
traceroute to 192.168.1.130 (192.168.1.130), 64 hops max, 40 byte packets
1  192.168.1.130 (192.168.1.130)  39.109 ms  14.201 ms  4.700 ms

After manually typing the identifier of the Mac in the Boox “Add Device” text field… I was able to add the Boox to my Mac’s devices again and things are starting to sync :slight_smile:
