Local Access Issue (lemmy.world)

Hi All, I cannot keep the connection stable to my pi. I put HAOS on a pi5 and I managed to get logged in on the app eventually and everytime I leave and come back it cannot reconnect.

It says it needs to refresh external IP but I only use it locally so I cant see why it would need this and I have location access allowed so it should know I am home.

I am also attempting to access on local IP 8321 and failing.

I think a bit of additional diagnosis would be needed. Is it still running automations? Can you ping it? I had for example my IP banned, which resulted in similar issues (has to be manually enabled in the http integration, I believe). And it rarely happens, but Raspberry Pis can also crash and become unresponsive. You could tell by nothing happening in the home anymore. Or maybe it somehow changed IP addresses? Does it have a static address or does the router do weird things with DHCP? Does http://homeassistant.lan:8123/ work and then also stops working?
