Uses wrong local IP address when multiple IP addresses are available

Open JJTech0130 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I have WSA, so I have an IP address for that (virtual) network, as well as a regular one. Checking the "localhost" checkbox chooses one at random, even if it doens't match the UPNP router's subnet.

It appears to pick the first one it finds, not randomly. Disabling and re-enabling the WSA network to make it not the first on temporarily fixes the problem. (But it gets messed up again if any of the networks reconnects)

I am not sure how to solve this. If the IP address changes, I recommend to explicitly configure the correct IP instead of using the "localhost" checkbox.

Closing as stale.
