        In System\Routing edit the gateway, and configure a 'monitor ip' you should be able to use something like 8.8.8.8, or perhaps run a traceroute and find some 'pingable' ip from your isp that does respond.

          I put on my ISP DNS's as the Gateway (10.0.0.1) does not respond to ping at all its filtered, so now i'm pinging the DNS and looks good ! thank you very much for your help again.

          Is there anyway to change the WAN_PPPOE name ? maybe put in the Provider's name ? as i will get a nother provider soon and make a load balancer and i would be nice to distinguish them !

            Check system -> Routing -> Gateways -> edit.
