Plugin seeing multiple IP's for same Kodi server

[tyfoon]

I can't connect to Kodi via the plugin. For some reason it wants to connect to 10.32.27.240 which is an IP my second LAN card is connected to (IP TV). It should only try to connect to 192.168.1.40.

For info: Firewall etc is open. I get the Kodi web interface if I go to 192.168.1.40:83 so that is all working nicely.

See LOG snippet below.

the kodi plug-in needs to discover 2 different services to be able to connect to your Kodi instance

_xbmc-jsonrpc-h._tcp
_xbmc-jsonrpc._tcp

from your logs it seems that the plug-in only see the _xbmc-jsonrpc-h._tcp service, and it see it twices with different ips

do you see it actually trying to connect, and do you see an error in the logs. If you set the log level to debug you should see messages like these:

Mar-16 08:07:22	 	XBMC	DEBUG Pinging on http port 83
Mar-16 08:07:22	 	XBMC	DEBUG Connecting on tcp port 9090

if you don't see the plug-in discovering any _xbmc-jsonrpc._tcp service, please make sure your Kodi settings are set as in the user guide, especially the "Remote control" ones

Ok, after restarting all it now seems to be connecting. Below detailed info from debug log.

Funny enough still wanting to connect to 10.32.27.240. In the device interface it also says "Connected to 10.32.27.240:83" while in the plugin settings there is only one client with the correct (192.168.1.40) IP
