Apinger high ping/some packet loss. Reset fixes though. Fix?

[seitys]

I haven't timed it but after several hours, a few times a day, Apinger shows high latency on the WAN (I have only 1 WAN) and some packet loss (2-5%). Restarting the service does fix the issue but how do I prevent this from happening in the first place?

I'm starting a new thread because my issue doesn't seem to be the same as the other Apinger thread on this subforum since restarting DOES fix things until it acts up again.
