The actual working IP changes, but what is displayed on the screen does not.

Example:
Home network is in IP range 10.2.X.Y and is configured in the wifi config as priority 100
Car network (from T-Mobile hotspot) is in IP Range 172.16.X.Y and is configured in the wifi config as priority 90.

The hotspot in question is in the car.

If the hotspot connects to the Home network first, it gets an IP in 10.2.X.Y, and that's displayed on the screen. However, when I pull away from the house, the hotspot then connects to the AP in the car, which issues 172.16.X.Y IPs, but the IP on the screen does not update to reflect the new IP address.

Can hooks be put in place to update that IP on the screen when the AP and IP change? I could install nmap and scan the entire 172.16.X.Y IP range to find the hotspot, but it'd be easier to just enter the IP on the screen.

At no time did the display change the IP address from 10.2.18.155 to 172.16.17.9.
