sabnzbd stopped logging in after IP address change by router

Hi, my sabnzbd was running fine without a problem for months. i just recently moved, and thus had to relocate my router mac etc. I was previously on a wired connection, but now only connect my mac wirelessly. My router has thus assigned a new IP address to my mac, instead of 192.168.1.115, it is now 192.168.1.133. my port is set to 7070. i have made sure my port forwarding is done properly to the new ip just in case. sabnzbd starts without a problem on the mac, but when i try to go to http://192.168.1.133:7070/sabnzbd it will not find the start page. i used to use the exact same method with old ip with no problems. im totally stumped as to why it won't detect the new IP. please help how to get it going.

How do you get around certain wesbites that ban your IP address? Do you have to change your IP address and can you just change an IP address to random numbers to work?

Your IP address is determined by your ISP, you have no say in the matter.
Changing it may disturb your connection or may make your ISP disconnect you.
If you disconnect your router for a day or so, you might get a new IP address when you reconnect.
Otherwise contact your ISP's help desk.
