How to Finally Fix WiFi Debugging Issues in Android Studio

The Common Problem
How many times have you gone through this frustrating situation?
- You enable WiFi debugging on your device
- You scan the QR code (or enter the pairing code) in Android Studio
- It works for a while — until you restart the device or switch networks
- Then you lose the connection and have to repeat the entire process
- Or sometimes the QR code simply refuses to work
Wi-Fi debugging in Android Studio, when properly configured, offers a smoother and more productive development experience.
The key is understanding the difference between pairing and debugging ports, and using the adb pair command to create a persistent trust link between your device and your computer.
Following this guide, you’ll never need to scan QR codes again or deal with unstable connections.
The command-line pairing process is faster, more reliable, and gives you full control over the connection.
