dhcp has nothing to do with you loosing your internet connection.

you can set lease time for 1 year even it dont matter.

Unless it drops every 3 hours, you have no problem. Most devices re-request the same IP, and cause no downtime through this issue. Call your ISP.

most ISPs over here shut down the connection once per day and give you new IP - can that be your problem?
but i agree, lease time is not your problem

I have the same IP when it renews, it just happens every day usually at a set time at night.
