But the external IP your ISP "assigns" to the WAN interface of your router has nothing to do with the internal IP your routers "assings" to the 4 LAN ports (you) :-) Anyway, query your ISP about this because is not normal (at least not for my provider) to have the remote IP changing every hour :-? >> Your dhcp server (the router) is configured right (it keeps the lease >> for almost one day), so maybe is your dhcp client which requests for a >> lease?

Look, my external IP remains the same even when I power cycle the router, but the local DHCP lease is set to be renewed every 9 hours. I would try by enforcing the local lease time renew from the client side (i.e., your debian computer).
