ADDITIONAL INFORMATION


My PC is connected to the network via cable, this is managed by KDE Plasma
without issues.

I also have a reMarkable; a device that when connected to the PC, is recognized
as an additional wired connection, and the device is reachable at a specific ip
address.

The output of "ip a", after attaching the device is the following

----

----

If I connect to enxf2868cb519fc, my device, from the KDE Network settings, then
the connection to enp57s0f1 is dropped.

Apparently it is not possible to activate both connections from KDE.

My current workaround is to open a console and execute "dhcpcd" as
administrator, after a moment both connections are active, and also shown as
such from the KDE Plasma settings.
