Name issue #27

Hi

I like this node - all seems o work BUT I have to use the IP address of my Yeelight - I cannot see the relevance of the name in the injected payload as you seem to have to use an IP address of the light in the actual node along with the port. The readme file says you couls use a hostname but that doesn't work - in the node if I put the IP address, it works but if I enter the hostname shown in Advanced IP Scanner - yeelink-light-color1_miio315442317.broadband - I get an error (with or without .broadband - I'd expect it to work without .broadband).

Any ideas?
