DHCP Issue (Internet Connection)?

Solved

Hello,
I'm coming to you for help with a partially resolved issue. Let me explain: Early this morning, while I was browsing the web, my internet connection was interrupted by an update to my Livebox 2. I chose to wait. After several hours, I still had no access to the network. I decided to perform a factory reset (seeing no other solutions). I was able to re-enter my login credentials, and magically, all the lights on the box turned green and my phone was working. However, NONE of the devices (tested with 2 desktop PCs via Ethernet and 2 mobile devices via Wi-Fi) had internet access. After hours of searching, I realized that the problem was related to IP configuration, so I changed the IPv4 address of my network card to a fixed address. So I FINALLY have internet access on my PC.

However, I still don't understand how this problem occurred, and I still need to repeat the process on all my connected devices. Does anyone have an explanation? I think I understand that the DHCP configuration went wrong, but I don't know more (not even how to fix it).

Feel free to ask for more information.
