Is it possible to choose the IP Address that BYOND tries to use when hosting?

I have a static IP address and a specific port that I use when hosting things but BYOND never managed to use the IP address that I want it to use when it hosts.

Is there a way to change it so that it only hosts using my static IP address?

If your external IP address is not static then that's something to talk to your ISP about. They're the ones who assign the address you use that is visible to the world.

If you mean the internal IP address on your LAN, that's usually something you can configure in your router. My router lets me set up certain MAC addresses to have static IPs internally, which is important for port forwarding to work right.
