KP - thanks for your answer.
I do not want an investigation - just to know if anyone knew about this.
For me, regardless of when or how long I disconnect, the IP change still 
comes at around 10:00 (+- about 30 Minutes) (cron daemon in the RADIUS 
server ??). I am in Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis, maybe it's regional ??
With this observation and the addition of this 'feature' on the T-Com 
router, I wondered if there was something in the protocol (the PPPOE 
RFCs allow a lot of 'application-specific' stuff).
As you rightly say, it's not really a problem, just a small annoyance 
that I am often logged in (doing a file transfer to my web server) when 
the IP change comes,

Thanks anyway

Bob
