    @stephenw10 yes every night at 3 a.m. i reset my wan connection
    So you have found the bug we are discussing about?

    Of course - you are not alone in having this issue - hence the redmine activity and additional fault-finding. The first part of this issue was fixed a while back but the 'fix' unmasked a deeper problem.

        It's going to up to the individual users. I need IPv6 so turning it off is not an option. I also have no option for WAN other than PPPoE, so that is fixed too.

        I also cannot be without a connection, so have another box ready to go. I also cannot leave it to my wife and/or daughter to sort-out when I am away and they are working from home - so I have to have a non-pfSense option for those periods.

        It hasn't been a great experience for me but pfSense needs* contributors to get these things addressed.

        ☕️

        * Well, ignoring the recent kick-in-the-face for dev users. That behaviour will have to change or pfSense will start to die, just like many others before them.

          Is there a reason you are resetting it every night? Though obviously that shouldn't trigger this.

              Ah OK just to cycle a new WAN IP? Do you actually get a new IPv6 IP doing that?

                i haven't noticed about ipv6 but ipv4 is new every time.

                i have some personal selfhosted apps and by changing ip every day i think i protect them somehow....

                  Second day with 2.7.1 and no reboots at all.
                  I don't know what have changed but there is no reboot at all.

                    Even though you're still resetting the connection every night?

                          Interesting. I would expect them to still be there since we didn't add anything to address it directly yet. However the fact it didn't happen for some days could be a clue....

                            It's always been intermittent for me, so the behaviour change may be just one of those things.

                              anything new about this?

                              i have reboots every 3-4 days...and every time i have crash reports.
                              This is something that it wasn't happening with previous versions.

                                No update. I'll re-raise it.

                                You see crashes then only about 25% of the time? You reset the PPPoE every night still?

                                  @stephenw10 yes to both questions.

                                  do you want to upload again logs?
