Remote Action Execution working one-way with vpn activated on receiver android

Ok then, i am publishing a little bug i discovered so Joao or his team can check it out

2 devices: SAMSUNG S8 (android 9) and S22 (android 13)

remote action execution behavior:

situation 1) when both devices are disconnected from my homelab vpn (zerotier), WORKS BOTH WAYS

situation 2) when s22 is connected to zerotier but s8 is not connected: WORKS BOTH WAYS

situation 3) when s8 is connected to zerotier but s22 is not connected: S8 can't receive actions, s22 can receive actions

situation 4) when both s8 and s22 are connected to zerotier: S8 can't receive actions, s22 can receive actions

it looks like android 13 and android 9 manage connections differently when using VPN.

Hi. Thanks for the report. Just so you know, Tasker uses Google's GCM for communication, so if communication is not working it's because GCM is not working. If you can get GCM to work, Tasker should start working too :) Hope this helps!
