        Sometimes the gateway monitor has a problem with your upstream for whatever reason. Go to System - Routing - Gateways. There you will find options as to whether to monitor the gateway at all, what to do if down, and what to actually monitor.

            Then just disable it if it isn't working.

                Good luck to you. I've seen several cases of users whose gateway monitoring wasn't working, just as yours isn't, but I don't think the actual cause was ever discovered, or if it was I certainly didn't hear about it.
