I recently moved to Starlink for my internet access provider and in doing so when the Starlik system came up it used different addressing assignments than the router assignments on the HughesNet system I used previously. For instance my static DHCP addressing changed from: 192.168.1.107 to 192.168.0.107.
My TP-Link LAN router changed from: 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.1.
When I reinitated Syncthing on my Linux PC it came right up. Its address for the Syncthing webpage is: 127.0.0.1:8384. Which I believe is what it was originally.
But on the Windows 11 PC I am unsure what it is supposed to be assigned. In the XML config file under AppData/Local/Syncthing:
</device>
<gui enabled="true" tls="false" debugging="false" sendBasicAuthPrompt="false">
<address>192.168.0.130:8384</address>
<user>ed</user>
<password>$2a$10$O4x3wfm6yZVXsrfaEjDIFuBF.tnlfVeZhhRK18UoR.2F8Guvohxr.</password>
<apikey>NTMhmamGi9sZn5CWGCc3ZqYCsGZChizK</apikey>
<theme>dark</theme>
</gui>
I changed the address assignment from 192.168.1.130:8384 to 192.168.0.130:8384. I then reinitated Syncthing but it still is not linking with the address change according to the log file:
