Wrong Network Port (OTA) gets selected, can't select correct COM port

This is a very annoying and frustrating problem which occurred in the latest release.

I can't select COM3 for my Arduino Nano for example, it automatically switches back to an IP-address.

Output: Uploading 'POV_Light_Hall' to 'Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328P' using '192.168.1.247'
The uploader returned an error
Resetting the board
Failed to reset the board, upload failed

I have to select the correct port and then click on Start very quickly, otherwise it won't upload!
I'd greatly appreciate any help! Smiley

This happened first when uploading code to an STM32 with stm32duino bootloader.

Thanks, this solved the issue!  Smiley

Maybe the developers should disable this (new ?) option by default, just to avoid such issues...
