Cannot paste IP address in Chrome on Android 7

[AC Question]

Trying to just paste an IP address in chrome, should be simple, cannot understand why its not. Unless its a bug.

I paste and press enter, chrome "auto corrects" it to something wrong, auto correct is disabled on my keyboard.

If i paste and press on the correct IP with my finger is does a search for the address instead of going to the address.

What am i doing wrong here?

Sounds like Chrome has a feature that allows you to search directly from the address bar.
You need to find that setting and turn it off.
