Description
I would be helpful if we could specify an AltServer IP address within AltStore, and an iPhone IP address within AltServer (Windows) because my devices can never find each other on their own.

Research direction
Start by tracing how AltStore discovers AltServer and how AltServer (Windows) discovers the iPhone; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Determine where each side could accept a manually specified peer IP, then verify that configured addresses allow the devices to connect reliably.
