Hosted Network doesn't remove the initial IP when I set a new one via control panel, resulting with multiple IPs.

I am trying to set a static IP address for a hosted network, created via command prompt.

I used to set the IP address from control panel settings with no problems.

Now, when I do the same, I get a problem. The new IP address is successfully added, not replaced. I get multiple IPs.

There are workarounds to delete the IP address, but every time I stop and start the hosted network, I get the same problem again.

I have tried:

• Removing the old IP address via command prompt.
  
• Setting the new IP address via command prompt.
  
• Disabling then enabling the IPv4 via control panel.
  
• Setting the same IP as static via control panel.
  

Nothing made a permanent difference.

Using the mobile hotspot feature isn't an alternative for me, because it is disabled when offline.

I don't have this problem with other connections.

I don't see multiple IPs in the Advanced TCP/IP settings.

Here is the `ipconfig` information given in cmd:
