Re: Alice (France) reboots my router every evening

It is a modem/router. On further inquiries it appears that for security reasons Alice insists that the IP address assigned to my router has to be changed every 24 hours. They are unable to specify when that change takes place. Presumably it was during the night, because I never noticed it. We had an electricity cut during the recent big storm here in SW France and the electricity resumed around 2200 hours. While that does indeed make sense, I first installed the router/modem during the day - so why didn't it reboot at the time I first installed the device? No answer from Alice of course.

Does this make sense? Do other countries do the same?
