Reconnects and loss of static IP

mcintoshuk — Sat, 08 Mar 2025 09:41:10 GMT

Full fibre recently installed. In the last 7 hours I can see that I've had three reconnects with a new IP allocated each time. As I had a (legacy) static IP, that was claimed to have been re-instated around a week ago. What is going on?

Meh, never mind, I've figured it out...

For clarity have you lost the static IP addresses or not?

This has happened to a few users on product change. It would help to be clear about your status.

No, I still have my static IP. I now understand why my IP _appeared_ to be changing, but the reasons are not something I feel appropriate to post publicly.
