Can the remote still connect if our computer is connected through ethernet?

Apologies if this is a seemingly dumb question, but we just switched our church’s computer connection from wifi to ethernet since we use it to stream and needed a better connection. We use the same computer to stream and to run OpenLP. So would this just be a change of IP address in OpenLP settings and the app settings or is there something else I need to do? I saw a post on this subreddit that seemed to explain how to but it seemed pretty complicated so I just wanted to double check before I try all that! Thanks in advance!

    So long as your new computer's ethernet cable plugs into the same network as your wifi, it should work just the same. Although it sounds like it's not working for you :disappointed:.

    Here's a small checklist that might help:
    - If you're on windows, make sure the network is set as a "private" network (not "public"). This means you trust connections within the network.
    - Check you are connecting to the same gateway. (search that on the internet if you don't know what I mean)
