Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I use my laptop to stream by connecting it to my TV via a Thunderbolt dock. The dock is hard wired to my gigabit LAN. However, when not connected to the dock my laptop is usually connected to my home WiFi. This means when connecting the laptop to the dock it's simultaneously connected to the network via the wired ethernet (through the dock) and via WiFi. Sometimes, in this configuration, I'll notice my game streaming is slightly laggy and/or choppy. When this happens I'll disconnect my WiFi and everything will work flawlessly. I believe this is because Moonlight is connected over my WiFi connection instead of the hard wired connection. This is further emphasized by the fact that, when I disconnect WiFi, the stream disconnects and I have to reconnect to the streaming PC.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option to the Moonlight settings interface to bind the app to a specific network interface so we can explicitly control which connection is used.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Instead of binding to a specific interface which would prevent Moonlight from making a connection when the interface isn't connected, the option could prioritize a specific interface as well so that when not connected streaming would still work. However, this is likely a more complicated solution.
