Hey!

Basically, the title, I called my ISP because I was getting some minor internet interruptions every 12 hours or so, and they told me that that's the way it works with dynamic ips, they restart their services every 12 hours, which leads to a minor disconnection.

My question is, other than requesting a static ip which is very expensive where I live, can I solve this? I did some research and came across something called ddns or mydns, or using pihole, is this correct? Can this be fixed?

Thanks!

You need a new ISP if this is truly what is happening.
