My local network was disconnecting every morning, probably due to being idle, and when the Vodafone router DHCP server started renewing the IPs, the static IP of the Pi-hole was conflicting. It took around 3 min every day for the network to come back. Now, by setting the DHCP IP range in the router to exclude the IP I set for the Pi-hole, I hope it will work.
