      That's good because I'm not sure there's much we can do with the drivers!  ;)

      Try disabling apinger for the gateway in System > Routing, edit gateway.

      In 2.2 there is an option to get more info from apinger by enabling 'gateway monitoring debug logging' in System > Advanced, Miscellaneous tab. Try that if disabling apinger makes any difference.

        Ok  ;D
        I'll try disabling apinger first and see how it goes the next days.
        Its happens always after the Firewall is online for 2 days.

          Ow yeah, I'm also getting these messages…
          On a disabled interface and no cable plugged in.

          They are on the same interface card though (sk..)
          I only use sk0 and sk1 for now.

            Is that at any time or just at boot?

              At the end of the boot cycle  :)

                WOL is a known x86 issue with a patch on Redmine, completely unrelated.

                  I guess you are using 32-bit pfSense 2.2 - that is effected by the gen_subnetv4_max issue, fixed by:
                  https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/7094c303b7d46c9f7b24c3f1bd4432187832e85c

                  Things that try to calculate the max IP address of a subnet are effected - WOL is one of them.

                  You can apply that small fix and WOL should work again.

                  As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."

                    Thank you !
                    I was guessing in that direction, because when using WOL in the terminal it worked  :)

                        I don't know if there is a relation , but tonight i noticed something strange in the logs.

                        My WAN ip changed to a private range… (twice)
                        I'm also seeing openvpn and LCDProc errors...

                        wtf !

                          A private IP on your WAN is usually caused by a cable modem that's lost its upstream connection.  Could that be happening here. Is the private address being assigned in any of your internal subnets?

                            Is your modem rebooting?  That might explain both symptoms.

                              Don't know , but that makes sense in a way…  :)
                              On the other hand it's giving me 2 different IP's.

                                You mean 192.168.10.1 and 192.168.100.10?
                                You aren't using either of those subnets (/24) internally?

                                  Nope :-)

                                  The 192.168.10.0/24 range is used by openvpn for vpn access

                                    Ok, so you could have something handing out address in that subnet. The 100.1 address is totally spurious, not used as a tunnel address etc?

                                      Nope not used.

                                      But the WAN link seems stable for now.
                                      I made some changes in the System general settings and they seem to work.

                                          I have the same issue and posted some logs in another thread yesterday. I've seen a few posts like this recently do possibly something needs tweaking. I'll add a link to my logs tomorrow when I get back to my desk. I've tried setting static address, disabling monitoring but every 3-7 days my line drops and needs s reboot of wan or box to resolve.

                                          Edit: here's the link to my logs… https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=88236.msg491251#msg491251

                                            In System -> general settings i added 127.0.0.1 as first dns server without any gateway
                                            then on the second line:
                                            8.8.8.8 with the gateway from my provider 84.192.192.1
                                            on the third:
                                            8.8.4.4 with 84.192.192.1

                                            the option to automatically find the gateway seems to f*ck the wan link sometimes…

                                            I didn't make any changes otherwise to the network config.

                                            Only updated LCDProc and used your guide to set it up because it kept crashing badly.
