blue iris external access ip address

[woodman]

All of a sudden my copy of blue iris external has become a strange address ie 127.0.***
and I cannot make any changes to this default address
Anyone know where this could be updated or changed to the computer ip address

That address is for informational purposes...it cannot be changed...does the pc have internet access? reboot the pc and router.

127.0.0.1 is the loopback address.
localhost - Wikipedia

sorry I forgot the router has been rebooted computer has been rebooted many times.
Re-loaded blue iris on 2 different computers no change
I still have that strange address and difficulty getting external access which I did not before
using the web user ip address that was shown

Its not a blue iris issue..there is something going on with the pc/network...open the command prompt and type ipconfig /all and post the results. Does the pc have access to the internet? can you view this website from the blue iris pc?
