I got my Jellyfin server all set up a few weeks ago and all of a sudden after rebooting my computer today, I couldn't access Jellyfin using http://IPADDRESS:8096/. I was able to troubleshoot a bit by myself and realized that http://localhost:8096/ worked. Eventually I ran ipconfig in cmd prompt and found that my IPv4 address is different now. When I update my IP address to the new one listed in ipconfig everything works as expected again.
Why did this change? Was it triggered by something I did or does Comcast control this and change it sometimes? Is there any way to auto detect a change in the future?
