      I setup a secondary WAN 3G connection using a Huawei USB modem and PPP protocol in pfsense 2.3.2
      The interface is connected, but even if there is no traffic whatsoever, the following process constant uses 10% of the CPU:

      /usr/local/bin/php-cgi -f /usr/local/bin/3gstats.php cuaU2 opt1

      Is this normal?

        This seems to be signal monitoring and statistics collection process.
        Do not have PPP configured right now, so cannot compare CPU usage.
