If you turn your internet router off and on, it should be assigned a new IP address by your ISP. That’s how mine works anyway. This is why dynamic DNS services exist, so you can host things at home even though you don’t have a static IP address.

They’ll still identify your device with many other data points available to them. Or at least they seem to be with me, even with VPNs and alternate browsers.

My modem doesn’t get a new external IP on reboot, either. None of mine ever have, that I can recall
