Fibre internet went down today for the first time ever. I have a T3200M router. Reboot fixed it.
 

Both the T3200M and the fibre internet have been extremely reliable. Never ever a problem until today. Just suddenly stopped working. A reboot of the router fixed it but now my public IP changed. Did Telus do something like cause my IP to expire or push a firmware update? I have had that public IP for a long time. Probably several months.

This is a concern because I go away for long periods of time and access my PC remotely. If it goes down like this while I am away there is nobody at home to reboot the router so I will lose access. I am ok with IP changes because I use ddns.net so I can still get access with the IP changes. If I need to reboot the router to get it to work that is a problem because that is not possible to do that remotely.
