Have you tried turning your router off and on again?
I'm only half joking.

I think you need to reset your router then.

Reset? like more than just turning it on and off? :owo:

Kinda. So the IP changes.

Open your start menu, search for Run (might be different if you aren't using English as your language), enter cmd into the box and hit enter. Then enter ipconfig in the command window that opened and hit enter.

Take the Default Gateway address (under the Ethernet Adapter info), and enter it into your browser as if it was a URL. Hit enter, this will take you to your router's settings page. You might be required to login. By default, the username should generally be 'admin' with no password.

There should be a settings or status page there somewhere which will let you renew WAN connection.

This is what worked for me when I got locked out of api for a week+

At least I think it was...

Resetting to factory settings. I don't think it's gonna help though.

Hai. So the IP changes.
Shouldn't rebooting the router get you a new IP?

Think so. But it didn't work for me to simply plug it in and out for whatever reason.
