IP Address seems to be static - would prefer Dynamic

[#1]

Hi

I switch my router off every night and when i turn it on some 10-12 hours later I still have the same IP address?

I dont have any addon option for it, my firewall is off and im not in debt with plusnet..?

ive had these "sticky" IP's before with SKY when rebooting or only turning off for 30 minutes or less, but usually an overnight switch off would give you a new IP.

can someone please check this?

thanks in advance

With Fibre(FTTC) IP addresses are allocated locally from small pools. Most people on Fibre dont turn their routers off at all so IP addresses rarely get released back to the pool so the chances of you getting a different IP are very low.

Hi @snadge

Thanks a lot for reaching out, I can see that our automated system assigned a static IP to your account back in 2019. Our system can do this for numerous reasons. Saying that, I've now raised a task with our NetOps Team to see if we can get this removed, and have a dynamic IP assigned instead.
