Netgear LB2120
-
Is anybody else using the Netgear LB2120 as a backup WAN?
I've got it all set up perfectly, and it does everything I need it to, however the gateway randomly goes down, sometimes once a day, sometimes after 2 or 3 days. The only way to get it back is to Release and Request a new lease on the Interfaces Status page. After I do this it carries on perfectly until the next time the Gateway shows as down.
Is there any way to fix this? Or any way for PfSense to detect that the gateway is down and automatically request a new lease?
As it stands just now, the current behaviour is kinda defeating the point of having a backup WAN.

At one point I was trying to use an LB1120 but I had issues with 4G in my area so I had to go with a different solution. I'm guessing you have the LAN port of the LB2120 going to the second WAN on pfSense?
Maybe try the Reject leases from setting under the backup WAN interface. In your case, the default IP of the LB2120 web ui should be 192.168.5.1, so try put that in there. If you want to be able to access the web ui of the LB2120 then also enter a 192.168.5.x/24 address in the field above.

@Raffi_ Yep, I've got it set up like that already.
