Ring live not working on cellular

All of a sudden I can no longer view live mode on my phone when I am away from the WiFi in the house. It still works fine on my partners phone just not mine? Any ideas how to fix it?

With permission ACCESS_WIFI_STATE declared in AndroidManifest.xml :

<uses-permission
    android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>

One can use the WifiManager to obtain the IP address:

Context context = requireContext().getApplicationContext();
WifiManager wm = (WifiManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
String ip = Formatter.formatIpAddress(wm.getConnectionInfo().getIpAddress());

This Works.
