That certainly is your problem. You've told the settings to connect to  
a specific IP address and if that changes, it can no longer connect.  
If you only have one machine for your frontend and backend and will  
not expect any other machine to use mythtv, you can set it to connect  
to 127.0.0.1.

There's more about it here:

Look under the General section.
