High availability / Metronet fiber WAN dropping internet every 24 to 36 hours.

Greetings everyone, I'm looking for some help diagnosing WAN IPv4 dropping every 24 to 36 hours. The WAN interface is not considered down when this event occurs. WAN is connected to directly to the modem which connects out to the Internet via fiber. The WAN interface details do not change when I release/renew to restore Internet. That process restores the network connection.
As I understand Metronet does not provide you with a public facing IP address be default. They use what is called Carrier Grade NAT. "Carrier Grade". You end up with a double NAT situation.

Suggestions how to tweak to make wan properly in sync with the nokia g-010g-a ont modem?
Things that I prefer not to do or cannot do.
- Bridge the modem
- Dedicated IP
- Communicate to the ONT by the webqui or ftp etc.
