Linkable portal is not showing in list of keys

This has happend a lot of times today, when I shall establish a link, from portal A to B, the key to B is not showing on the list of linkable portals. I tried to restart the game, checking so the game was updated and no visibel ghost links.

But I could establish the link by going to portal B instead and link portal B to A.

This was not a problem today, when fielding in town, but I dont want to make fields over distance by traveling back and forth 40 km between portal A and B..

  • Are you sure that A was capable of doing the link?

    It might not have been the level required to do the link.

  • Yes, because none of the portals had 8 links out, and were able to establish links to other portals.

  • It could still be not high enough for that particular link

    Well I havent got any problem making links from the same portal but further away. And p5 is good for at least 65 km.. and the links I tried to estabmish today was about maximum 100 meters..

    But I see your point! If the link should have been like 100 km+ it would be impossible without linkapms I think. But I live in a small town 😂😂

    I had exactly the same problem this morning, It looks like the bug I posted: https://community.ingress.com/en/discussion/9478/bug-portals-not-shown-in-link-menu

    But this morning restarting Ingress didn't help. I tried restarting twice.

  • Yes, I really hope they fix it, and kind of fast, because this could really be bothersome. Do you use iphone or android?

  • I use Android.

  • I had the same bug today in Ingress Prime 2.40.

    The distance of the portals was low (about 300 m), no ghosting links (I linked the same portal from the portal next to the current one successfully before), it seems of be an issue of the distination portal that already had many links (maybe 8 outgoing, but this should be ok for my current link).

    It is a pain, when you try to build large fields with some preparation.

    I had this issue this morning at 6:30 AM CST

    Was unable to link to portals approximately 2.5 km from the portal I was at. Only after looking at the key in inventory for each portal multiple times, was I able to link to the portals. I had double checked intel to verify I could link, but I sat there forever attempting to link. I've grabbed the info from comms showing how long I sat there attempting to link.

    06:27 <EvilSuperHeros> deployed a Resonator on Old Sunset Hills Water Tower
    06:27 <EvilSuperHeros> captured Old Sunset Hills Water Tower
    06:35 <EvilSuperHeros> linked Old Sunset Hills Water Tower to South Side Church of God
    06:36 <EvilSuperHeros> created a Control Field @Old Sunset Hills Water Tower +250 MUs
    06:36 <EvilSuperHeros> linked Old Sunset Hills Water Tower to Information Booth
    


    Oddly, a bit earlier in the morning, I didn't have this issue and fielded quite a bit without slowness, ect.


    Had good 4G signal

    Ingress Prime: Ver 2.40.1

    Samsung S9

    Android: Pie

    I have same problem even links less then 200m refuses only thing help is restart not sure why, usually good 4g reception in city when it happens and its not because 8 outgoing links already no no... Its very annoying bug..

  • I have reported the issue, and they said it was under investigation.. and that it could happend with bad signal, but like others above, my signal was strong..
