10 min DHCP lease times

Recently moved over to Toob which has just gone live in Locks Heath area and been having problems with my Tplink ER605 multi wan router, which works faultless on Virgin.

One thing I have noticed is both DHCP and DHCPv6 are coming back with 10min lease times on the CGNAT/WAN address which means the router is renewing the lease every 5 mins (which helpfully fills my log up). Can anyone confirm if this is standard config on Toob in other areas?

Thanks
Paul

I presume this is so when people change their routers they don't need to phone in and get a lease deleted manually, or wait several hours for their Internet to start working.
 
I get 10 minutes on IPv4 (I pay for a static IP) but 24 hours for IPv6. Using a Juniper SRX.

I agree with jpm as to the reason that is probably why.

Thanks for the responses, I think the easiest way forward for me is to try another gateway, it seems there is some incompatibilty somewhere with the ER605 & Toob..time to dig out my Ubquiti router from the cupboard
