Hey, we've got a bunch of TG585v7 (for ISDN lines) :-)
One thing that I noticed is that the external IP now changes about every
hour or so, when the internet goes offline and after a minute or so
comes online again.
External (routeable) or internal (local network) IP?
External IP
The other thing is now I see:
Jan 7 10:09:08 HDBB dhclient: bound to 192.168.1.190—renewal in 55
seconds.
While previously I saw:
Dec 31 08:01:13 HDBB dhclient: bound to 192.168.1.190—renewal in 40438
seconds.
Why the difference?

Maybe the time for the leasing has decreased with the new device, but
I guess this can be tweakable from the router's web interface (or by
means of telnet) :-?
Look, this is from the router's configuration page:
***
Home > Home Network > Interfaces > LocalNetwork [ Configure ]
DHCP Lease Time: 1 day, 0:00:00
***
I see this:
DHCP Lease Time: 0 days, 23:59:49
but it is not configurable. And then I still see in syslog:
I take that back, it *is* configurable, but 23 hours is fine with me, 1
minute is not. Change it to 12 hours maybe? Would I mess things up? I
hate to talk to Telmex because then you have to hide the fact that you
are running Linux and pretend you are Window$ :-(
