Hmm, interesting. Does it connect successfully, repeatedly during that time?
-
yes. I get 59 new IP addresses over the course of 1 hour.
I have disabled the option to reset the ppp connection for now.

What is your selection for the Periodic Reset option? It sounds like you have a bad custom option set. Daily at 3am would be Hour:
3, Minute:0. If you put*in minute it would run at every minute during 3:00am-3:59am. -
OK, I need to force it to "0" . It defaults to * so I missed that.
-
the pppoe reset option will ignore all user input and enter * into CRON for minutes. The only to get around this is to manually edit the CRON job which I don't want to do.
Another bug came up with the captive portal. If you click on Enable custom page and upload your own custom page then click save then go back and click live view it will always show the default netgate page.
Another bug with captive portal: if custom page is already clicked to enable and you try to unclick enable custom page and then try to save it doesn't unclick enable custom page. Once you have clicked custom page it us always enabled.

Looks like it just doesn't like
0. If you enter a non-zero value such as1or30it takes it. But if you enter0then on save it changes to*. -
I created a Redmine issue to have the issue corrected:

not sure this is coincident with the new release but after a ISP outage I found that dhcp service stopped handing out default gateway assignments. I had to go to each one and give the default default gateway value even though it wasn't required before.

That is unrelated. That can happen if your upstream/WAN doesn't provide you with a gateway via DHCP. Some have also seen it if DHCP starts while a WAN is down. We're looking into ways to improve that behavior.

@jimp quick response!
ok, started while wan was down would explain.
but 192.168.xx.1 can be a perfectly good default gateway ip whether there is a wan or not so kind of curious behavior. now that I have populated the default default I won't be bothered by it again but it cost me in down time after ISP was restored. it makes the advertised behavior on that page no longer a certainty, maybe add 'might' or 'should' there?
