      I'm using 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1.  I've recently started having problems with my WAN connection not reconnecting after periods of high packet loss.  I suspect the packet loss is caused by something the ISP is doing because the problem occurs daily at 9:20 pm.  I've also seen it happen at 9:20 am, but not predictably.  My internet connection is provided by my building, so I don't have a direct line of communication to the ISP or their support center.

      I have to reboot pfSense to get the WAN to come back online.  I've tried changing the Monitor IP to different servers, but it hasn't made a difference.  I'm hoping somebody has an idea on a setting within pfSense that will allow it to self-recover from the WAN connection having high latency.

      A sample of the logs are below:
