Description

Altstore 1.6.2,WIFI Refresh Faild(Could not find Altserver),the same WIFI network,local network permitted,Iphone13,IOS 16.1.2.

What about add an option to set the ip of the Altserver in Altstore to help Altstore find Altserver.

BTW,I find out when Refreshing Faild with a cable,enabling Personal Hotspot in the same time can solve this problem.
Thans for your hard work!

Research direction

Start by tracing AltStore’s Wi-Fi refresh flow and how it discovers AltServer on the local network. Reproduce the reported failure with an iPhone 13 on iOS 16.1.2 and AltStore 1.6.2, then verify that configuring an AltServer IP allows refresh over Wi-Fi without breaking the cable or Personal Hotspot cases.
