Have you set a IP address reservation for your PC ON the router?
Is QoS enabled or disabled?
Is others using internet bandwidth when you gaming?

Not sure on the ip address reservation, qos is enabled with all ports manually added for destiny 2 as priotized, no I am the only device that takes any bandwidth while gaming

Another thing that has me really thrown off is I had the router hooked up for about a month without any issues til last weekend when this started to happen. I had nothing setup or turned on as far a features go at that point and I didn't try configuring things until all of this started.

I don't know why the leases are renewing as often as they are... But one solution would be to set a reserved IP for your PC, here's how:
Open your router's interface (routerlogin.net), go to Settings > Setup > LAN Setup.
Scroll to the bottom and press Add under Address Reservation, select your device in the reservation table (hopefully it's named, if not, open cmd and use ipconfig) and then press Add.
Now the IP address won't change and hopefully the lease won't constantly renew.

I've done the reserved Ip played for about a hour no issues will report back in a couple of days and update.
