PR60X configured with dual WAN failover loses both connections every 2 hours
I have a PR60X with Metronet (T-Mobile) fiber (static IP) on WAN1 and Verizon Home Internet Lite (DHCP) on WAN2. Both connections are set to ping Google and Cloudflare DNS to determine online status....
Hi jdrch , Could you please follow this KB https://kb.netgear.com/000065831/How-do-I-enable-Secure-Diagnostics-Mode-on-my-Pro-Router to enable SDM, and PM SDM port number, we will check why Internet drops in about 2 hours. You may also do some sanity check: Is Verizon DHCP server lease time about 4 hours(that PR60X DHCP renewal happens in about 2 hours), when you could not ping external IP, was it from LAN device? Were you ping URL, or IP like 8.8.8.8? Can you ping from PR60X diagnostic page?
