    I am working on making a multiplayer game for android, but I can't get my phone to connect to the host running in the editor. I want to use direct connect because I know Unity's service won't be free forever. I have tried multiple attempts to connect to a host with little success.

    Combos that I have tried:

    Host: Unity Editor
    Client: Local build
    Result: Pass
    Host: Local build
    Client: Unity Editor
    Result: Pass
    Host: Unity Editor
    Client: Laptop
    Result: Pass
    Host: Laptop
    Client: unity editor
    Result: Fail
    Host: Unity editor
    Client: Android
    Result: Fail
    Host: Android
    Client: unity editor
    Result: Fail
    also tried laptop and android and that didn't work either. The only time I successfully connected android and unity editor together was when I used the match maker, but I don't want to use that because it won't be free forever. Any advice?

    EDIT: Never mind I my phone was on my other SSID...
