My MAC address has changed after I switched to another connection type.

Each TV has 2 MAC addresses (1st is WiFi, 2nd is Ethernet) and a 2nd MAC is activated automatically after you switch to another connection type and restart the app. MAC address is unique for every TV and cannot be changed manually.

Since app version 3.0.0 for LG webOS TVs, there is no access to MAC address, so only device ID is available in the app, but it will be activated automatically after app launch if you activated your TV before. You can use your old MAC to upload playlist too.

I cannot access the application website or application recently. My provider has blocked access to the application website or application.

Try changing DNS entry of your TV/device/PC/router network settings to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 and see if it helps.
You can also try using VPN services on mobile devices to access the website.

I get "Server (URL) connection timeout", "Check playlist URL" or "No playlist uploaded" messages, when starting the app, while my playlist URL that works on my computer, other devices and apps.

Try example test list http://knetworktvlists/example.m3u (external URL) first, then then check your playlist for errors. Make sure your URL is a direct link, not a redirect and that it is currently online. You can also try downloading your playlist file by putting the playlist URL in the internet browser address field and use it as a static playlist at My list page.

In case of Check playlist URL you can try turning off your TV/device from power cord for ~1 minute to clear device cache. Also try long pressing "0" or "CH", or long mouse click "Reload" button to force reload of playlist URL (disable app cache).
