I have a functional VPN setup following the instructions from this video.

I modified the TAP inet address for privacy reason. When I go to System and System Info my IP address is still showing my initial NON-VPN Private WIFI address 10.1.1.97. Why doesn't the System Info page in Confluence update to my VPN Internet address when I am connected via my VPN?

Button not willing to accept some $INFO in label

I have the below button in my <control type="list"> <itemlayout>. Label is not displayed.
If I change its control type to "label" - labels are displayed. If I change $INFO to $INFO[Weather.Temperature], it is displayed.
The <content> for this list is videodb:// (or musicdb://).

Why such behaviour (and, in the first place, how to avoid it)?

Code:
<control type="button">
<description>List item label</description>
<top>0</top>
<left>BaseItemSize</left>
<height>BaseItemSize</height>
<width>LabelWidth</width>
<label>$INFO[ListItem.Label]</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow($VAR[current_window],$INFO[ListItem.FolderPath])</onclick>
