There are a lot of great TLS/HTTPS technologies out there to really bulletproof a web server's configuration, but that entire configuration falls to the service you're connecting to.

What types of IP addresses are there, which ones should I worry of being leaked, and what can attack

If we're talking about public WiFi, there is more overall risk. We rely on TLS/HTTPS nowadays to protect the data between your device and the server. In a perfect world with correct configurations, you could login to your bank on public WiFi with malicious threat actors on the network and you would be perfectly fine. The problem comes with trusting the WiFi operator to not use shit settings and trusting the service you're interacting with to not do a doo doo shit job with their TLS settings. I have a VPN on my phone, but I rarely use it. I'm generally on a mobile network. Would I trust my connection to my bank over Starbucks WiFi? Yeah. Would I trust my connection to Jim and Bob's Dildo Factory over gas station WiFi in a large city? Ehh probably not.

No risk to someone knowing your home IP doesn't equate to no risk with public WiFi

From an individual perspective, there really isn't much of a risk to an IP being known by others. Your IP is already logged everywhere when you connect to the internet. It isn't 2006 anymore

If he does sort it out, definitely let us know what the issue was. I'm always curious about that sort of stuff

He might know what's up then. I can't imagine he'd be upset and hopefully he'll use it as an opportunity to teach you something new

Yeah, I don't know what to tell you without being on your system, seeing the issue first hand, and going from there. It makes no sense because a network reset wouldn't cause that. I assume you're pretty young, so I'd involve a parent and see if they're aware of any changes that they made
