Description

Description

Display a notification whenever the host computer's IP has changed. This should probably be optional. Maybe it could be enabled by default and include a "don't show again" checkbox.

Why this feature/change is important?

We do most of our testing on hardware which means configuring devices to use a static IP in proxy settings. If we change locations (or get a new IP from DHCP), when the address changes, getting some kind of reminder about it would be helpful. We recently had a junior team member who got blocked after switching locations because they didn't realize why their phone had stopped talking to the network.
