      @stephenw10 Yes it was.

      So after the edit to "Disable Gateway Monitoring Action" and the static DHCP it seems that all is much better now. I bounced 7 times yesterday and recovered each time all services.

      I only worry about static DHCP is that going to mess any of my lookups up? or is that only for the LAN side?

        All the "Static DHCP" lease details are written to the system hosts file, so they are known 'for live'.
        Lookups for a device will work, even if the device isn't present in the network, and the last recent lease expired.

        "Static DHCP" are leases that the DHCP server hands out to devices on LAN's.
        Has nothing to do with the WAN side, where a DHCP-client might be setup, so it can ask an IP/Gateway/DNS/etc from the upstream DHCP server, probably your ISP router .... which has a ... DHCP server on board.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          @Gertjan Fantastic sir. Looks a lot better, I have my second circuit being installed tomorrow and might put a Velo for a 3rd WAN link to be safe.
