Restore bluetooth device after removal in bluetoothctl?

Hi all

I removed a device in bluetoothctl with "remove <dev>". Now, this device is not visible anymore with the "devices" command in bluetoothctl and I'm not able to pair or connect the device. How can I "restore" the device? The device works perfectly when connecting from another pc.

Thanks for any help!

Regards, Michelee

you should be able to type "connect <dev>" to get it back, otherwise try "scan on" and then hit the "connect" button on your device (assuming it has one)

Worked, even though I tried that before. Seems that I have just been too far away from the other device... Thanks anyway!
