      I've been noticing an issue if I put pfSense on my Alix under load and max out my internet connection download.  I'm hoping for help in narrowing down where the issue exists.  My internet connection is 25mb/10mb,  if I max out the download the issue occurs.  If I throttle the downloads to 16mbps everything is stable.

      I've got a set of system logs from when this happens

        It seams that your modem crashes ("Could not find IPv4 gateway for interface (wan)") at high load.

        Maybe it helps to shut off flow control at WAN interface of pfSense by adding "hw.vr1.fc_setting=0" to your /boot/loader.conf.local. If it doesn't exist yet, create it at first.
