WAN doesn't get lease for a long time after some reboots (?)

Hey all,

I've noticed that every once in awhile - after rebooting opnsense, or rebooting my modem, or sometimes for no reason - opnsense cannot grab a WAN IP for awhile. It seems to happen less than once per week, but when it does, I have to repeatedly reboot both the modem and opnsense until it eventually catches on again.

I've tried doing WAN release/renew, WAN reload, full opnsense reboot in rapid succession, rebooting opnsense then waiting 5 minutes, etc. I'm not sure what sort of pattern I'm supposed to be using for the fastest turnaround.

Is there a related setting I can use to help smooth this process out, or perhaps help opnsense be able to recover on its own, without my intervention?

What is you setup?
Modem Bridge -> to Opnsense?
Any Logs?
