      Hello everyone! I've noticed a few weird things regarding the IP routing table. First of all I have two Internet connections, let's call them W1 and W2. and I have created a gateway group, which is named WANs. WANs group contains W1 as Tier1, and W2 as Tier2. What I've noticed is that the default route gets lost after performing a reboot. And pfsense keeps that way until I choose W1 as the default one. Also it happened twice this month that the default route gets "suddenly" removed from the IP routing table. Kindly remember that these things happened to me while "WANs", which is a gateway group containing two interfaces as WAN, is being set as "default gateway" using the recent feature "default gateway IPv4" introduced with 2.4.4 version. Kindly check the picture below 0_1546866541889_LostDefaultGW.png

        So most probably this issue is a bug with the recently-added feature.

          Have you found a workaround for this?

              Unfortunately that didn't work in my case. Same errors, same behaviour. I don't use gateway groups though.
