There isn't a built in way.

You might be able to call your ISP and have them remote reboot (or even through their online portal?) the modem.
Maybe if the router is already booted and the modem reboots, it might pull a new ip address. (might take a bit though)

I've also noticed this when I bring my XR450 online. After power cycling the ISP modem, the XR fails to connect until the XR is rebooted afterwards once more, then the XR connects.
