      Ah, OK. Yes that could well trigger dpinger to restart. Not an issue then.

          @stephenw10 yea it's been over a week without issue so far.

          would it make sense after cleanup the issue would be fixed? not sure why having those in there would cause the issues i faced.

            I would guess that you had some VPN connection defined that was becoming the default gateway if the WAN ever saw packet loss or latency. Removing that prevented it.
            But you should make sure that the default gateway in System > Routing is set as the WAN and not automatic.

              @stephenw10 I will make sure it's set to that, thank you so much for helping me through this!

              I guess we can close the issue. I think I'm good now. Appreciate it.
