Routing problem with dual WAN interfaces

[meyergru]

I have two pppoe WAN interfaces, WAN (pppoe0) and WAN2(pppoe1), only the first of which is in active use.

Thus, only WAN ist active under System->Gateways->Single. The other interface is a standby fallback, although it is online most of the time.

Whenever pppoe1 gets a new IP, /usr/local/etc/rc.newwanip gets called, which I can see by these log entries:

I this situation, there seems to be a problem when the new default route gets set: Every open TCP connection is reset and gets disconnected. This should never happen when these interfaces are disabled on the gateway page - not even if they were active, but lower in priority than existing gateways.

It seems like the route is always deleted and then created again, even if it does not really change.
