      Since I switched to my Fiber ISP, I have not been able to get the Gateway monitoring working.

      I had it disabled up until now, but I plan on adding a 4G failover so I need to get it working.

      My pfSense is behind the fiber modem/router in a DMZ and everything works properly.

      Gateway monitoring works perfectly on my OpenVPN gateways and ping works perfectly through the WAN interface.

      I have tried messing with the advanced settings to no avail.

      Edit: I am trying with dpinger from the console:

      dpinger -f -d 1 -B *PIA local VPN IP* 9.9.9.9
      

      succeeds

      while

      dpinger -f -d 1 -B *WAN interface IP* 9.9.9.9
      

      shows 0 0 100

      Edit 2: I connected a second device to the ISP modem/router, dpinger fails to ping the modem/router and the second device when ping has no problem.
      Also, dpinger fails to ping any external address when I bind it to the LAN interface and can only ping LAN IPs.
      Binding it to localhost, I cannot ping external addresses while when I try to ping LAN addresses, I get sendto error: 49.
      I am trying all of the above with data lengths > 0.
