ISP Changes IP Address and Asus ET12 Router Has to be Manually Rebooted

KMSZ

I changed ISPs from Xfinity (with fixed IP address) to Fidium (dynamic IP address).  I have an Asus ET12 router, and each time (approximately once a week it seems) when the WAN IP address changes from the ISP, my Asus ET12 can’t reconnect and I lose internet connectivity.  I have been rebooting the router, and it connects fine with the new IP address.  Some relevant router settings are: 
- WAN connection Type:    Automatic IP
- DNS Server:  Get the DNS IP From your ISP automatically
- DHCP Query Frequency:  Aggressive Mode
- Router firmware is up-to-date
I’d rather not have to pay an extra $10 per month to get a Static IP address.  This seems like it should be straightforward to resolve, but I have searched various forums and can’t find a solution.   Is there anyway that I can have the Asus ET12 automatically reconnect so that the recovery from these IP address changes doesn’t require a manual reboot?   Thanks for any help.
