WAN connection drops after 15 min high load [SOLVED]
-
This shows up when it chrashes:
Mar 4 00:31:16 check_reload_status: Reloading filter
Mar 4 00:31:16 check_reload_status: Restarting OpenVPN tunnels/interfaces
Mar 4 00:31:16 check_reload_status: Restarting ipsec tunnels
Mar 4 00:31:16 check_reload_status: updating dyndns WAN_DHCP -
That is more of a symptom than a cause. There are no apinger entries?
What do the RRD quality graphs look like?
You could try a 2.1.1 snapshot, I believe they have a number of fixes for apinger issues.

Nothing before this in the log, and nothing after until the reboot.
Will try 2.1.1.
Never heard of RRD graphs before so i just need to figure out what and where they are first ;)
-
RRD Quality looks fine in general but it's not hard to see when then WAN drops out.
See attached.No package-loss except from when the WAN is down
-
Yet that doesn't show 100%. Could be the rounding that RRD does to fit the data.
You might try disabling apinger all together. Go to System: Routing: Gateways: Edit the WAN gateway, advanced section, disable gateway monitoring.
If that solves it you can instead tune apinger to better fit your line conditions.Steve

Well that at least made a difference.
Unfortunately not the difference i needed.After disabling apinger the line crashed after 1-2 min at 100mbit DL.
I tried enabling it again, but now i only get 2 pings through after a reboot before it chrashes again.Gateway log is now showing:

Hmm. You could try setting an alternative monitor IP, something publically available like 8.8.8.8.

Will try that tonight.
Also prepped a LiveCD on USB to test with. -
Running a fresh install with 2.1.1 embedded.
This seems to have fixed the issue.Unfortunately i cannot provide much information on what the actual problem was, so for anyone else experiencing this i can only recommend that you try a fresh install of 2.1.1
Appreciate the help Steve!

I did read somewhere that this was to do with Multi-WAN stuff happening even on single WAN setups. Maybe that was corrected. Would that make sense?
