<![CDATA[Packet Loss: 0.0%,RTT:54ms - why GW is down?]]>I found interesting situation, when GW's packet Loss: 0.0%, RTT: 54ms but GW is offline. Why? There is no packet loss, ping is good.

pfSense 2.1

Packet loss is 10% but GW is still up. Why? Is there any kind of fix?

The stats for the 2nd WAN get stuck in a weird state showing huge packet loss or latency, but in reality there is no such packet loss or latency. The fix for me would be to restart the "apinger" service. Maybe this could be fixed in time for 2.1.1.

Recently in my multiwan setup ( cable and adsl ) after an outage on the cable modem after it came back I was seeing packet loss consistently reading 14% even though their was no packet loss, I tuned off the modem again and packet loss went to 114% ?? . I rebooted pfsense,  turned the modem on and all was back to normal

Loss: 66.0%, RTT: 53ms
Warning, Packetloss: 66%

All settings are default, pinging one of Google.com's IPs, "Down" time is 30 secs. Why GW is not down with such packet loss?

Set the "down" time on the gateway to 30s rather than 10

But "up time" will be the same 30 seconds and lags will be noticeable for users. Is it possible (patch or additional package) to set asymmetric up/down time?

We have found that in times of very high packet loss the 10s default down time is not sufficient for apinger to properly gauge the loss.
