Technician changed my IP address to "public"

A smartbro tech came here to check my connection. When he left I can't access my canopy anymore using the 169.254.1.1 method. Of course testmy.net would let me down hehehe following the steps in one of the threads here I was able to access it again (using the 10.20.30.40 way). When I checked my canopy settings, I noticed that my IP address is now set to "public" and the IP address of my canopy is inputed in the box. Questions:

1.  Is there any danger my IP address is set as public?

2.  If I change my IP to "local" and erase the IP in the box will I be able to access my canopy the old way (169.254.1.1)?

Please help me on these Thanks.
