your ISP have allocated you Carrier-grade NAT IP address , yes it can create issue like Strict NAT on gaming consoles , closed ports , tough to access computer or NAS from outside of network etc etc…..you can look your NAT type on your Gaming Device to know for sure ? …………………………..if you notice any issue you might need to ask your ISP to provide you Static WAN IPv4 address ………………….. if you don’t use services that needs dealing with ports etc … you will be fine
lease time is set very low …usually lease time is set below 4Hr if there is some kind of maintenance going at back end………………….but i can be wrong
