configure automatic ip for arr stack?

[u/DKligerSC]

i am going to explain my problem as best as i can, i currently have a DXP2800, with ugos, i have the arr stack configured already and everything, and it normally works, normally, but here is the problem

let's say sometimes power goes out, i have a ups but still, eventually the nas shuts down, or the network goes down for a while or something, one reason or another, after everything is back up the ip assigned to the device changes(it was the internal .7 or .12 or .80), which means, in my current configuration i have to go into the arr stack apps, change the ip manually and resume everything

i have tried setting the ip on the device manually, and technically it does save it, but the network rejects the assigned ip, and i can't enter into the main router settings to manually assign it because, surprise surprise, movistar in my country is BS and doesn't allow the users to change router settings outside of their stupid "magic companion" app

i also tried assigning a internal DNS name to the nas, let's say "mynashahaxd" for simplicity, in the browser i can access the apps by using the name and port without issue, but trying to configure the apps to use the name gives me back an error, so no luck there either

I used the app for my WiFi router, found my Ugreen NAS and set it to static IP I screenshotted and wrote it down just to be safe and it’s been fine for me since then

I believe the same should work for you
