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?

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
