I just had my M10 (not yet replaced) off for 8 days due to severe
bill shock but I got the same IP address again when I switched it
back on.
DHCP does try to give the same IP to the same MAC address but
after 8 days would imply either that not many people are on that
pool or there may be something else mechanism for assigning IPs
The question of course is; are we going to be able to assume a
more or less fixed IP?
