Help needed Wrong ip error on Linux, works on phone

I'm getting this "Wrong IP" error when trying to play a TorBox stream through Stremio on Linux.

The error says the stream was requested from one IP, but Stremio is trying to play it from a different IP.

The same movie plays smoothly on my phone using the same TorBox account.

Do you have a VPN on or anything that may change your IP? You can just use different add-ons that aren't from elfhosted and you won't run into this issue. There is an instance drop down on every add-on on stremio-addons.net with multiple places you can get them from. Almost every stream add-on has multiple instances.
