How do you change the IP it creates the sharing server with?

Mine is defaulting to 172.17.0.11 which I cannot connect to internally at all even on the same network. I have no idea why, I don't see any rhyme or reason other than my entire 192.x.x.x is the network configuration I have going internally.

I can get to the calibre page on the docker install using the 192.x.x.x:PORT and turn everything on or off in the GUI, but when I star the listening server or wireless device connection it gives me the 172.x.x.x as a listener.

I then try and open a browser on any if my iDevices or my kindle paperwhites and they fail.

I am brand new to calibre, but an avid reader and wanted to convert a ton of epubs I have gotten over the years to kindle format and load them up.

Am I doing this entirely wrong?
