WAN gateway not going back up after Internet outage

[kevindd992002]

After an Internet outage, my WAN gateway does not go back up until I disable and re-enable it in the opnsense GUI. This has happened twice already and I see a lot of these in the logs since the Internet went down:

2024-07-23T08:32:34   Warning   dpinger   WAN_GW 8.8.4.4: sendto error: 65   

I don't have any custom time settings in the gateway. The only custom setting I have there is the monitor IP (8.8.4.4) and everything else is at their default.

Thoughts?
