      Hi everyone,

      I'm in a challenging scenario. Recently I setup my pfsense on a bare metal R210 II with 4GB of ram and everything has been working great the first day. Today is the 4th day where I'm running into a major issue with DHCP IP renewing on WAN network and thereby dropping the Internet access until I reset/restart my WAN interface.

      R210 II has 2 ports on the back (using 1 for WAN, LAN on the other)

      • I believe they are Broadcom ports

      I have seen a handful of posts here with similar issues but not quite the same.

      What's happening?

      • DHCP IP seems like it changes to a new lease I assume? (Home connection 100/100 speed)
      • There is still connectivity on the fios line and its evident since soon as I reset the interface by logging in locally - I can see the DHCP new ip and voila I'm back online!

      challenge is

      • I notice this while I'm away and my wife is already texting me about it. :)

      What can be done guys?

      Here is a Screenshot of my WAN preset section

      I did try choosing "clear"& "pfsense default" - doesn't help.

      Here is the Gateway LOG below:
