WAN keeps resetting after disconnect and reconnect
-
I'm having a problem with my new pfSense box on 2.4.5 (also occurred under 2.4.4): when the WAN is disconnected and then reconnected, or when 'Release WAN' and 'Relinquish Lease' are selected from Status -> Interfaces and then reconnected with 'Renew WAN', my pfSense install keeps resetting the WAN interface until the system is rebooted. This can happen when the cable is physically disconnected, or when, for example, the gateway device the WAN interface is attached to disconnects (during a firmware upgrade).
This doesn't occur on a clean install, but does occur after I've reloaded my configuration from backup, with no packages installed. The issue continues, and the following log message appears repeatedly:
There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:201: no routing address with matching address family found. - The line in question reads [201]: pass out quick on { igb0 } $GWWAN_DHCP6 inet6 from any to any tracker 1583211407 keep state dnqueue( 1,2) label "USER_RULE"
I also get the following message in the console repeatedly:
config_aqm Unable to configure flowset, flowset busy!Is there something wrong with my configuration?

Found the problem: the WAN interface kept restarting if 'Speed and Duplex' was set to 'autoselect'. Changed to 'Default', and the problem is resolved.
