Interesting. Just for giggles I went and added the domain back in the DHCP reservation and it went offline again. This is so stupid all the time I have spend and the ADT tech time was ridiculious when If they would of provided basic log access or troubleshooting it could of be solved in a fraction of the time.
The reasoning behind not allowing access was due to security reason..... What the device is in my house on my network......

I just hung up with ADT tech support (this time they called me!). I explained the issue that caused problems for over a month, sequence of events, and just asked if I could learn anything for if it happens again. She was confused. Checked her system notes and said that a firmware update was pushed to the gateways on 9/1, so she thinks mine hit early and that is what fixed things. She suggested that if this ever happens again to inquire about firmware updates that could cause or fix the issue. I asked her to note upwards that someone must have known there was a glitch that needed to be fixed as that could have saved me weeks of effort. Not her fault, she was really pleasant and helpful.
Bottom line is I'm up, and have no clue if the prior tech who didn't call me performed some kind of reset/recert on my unit or if the firmware upgrade did it. Either way, I'm up. Not totally satisfying, but I'll take it.
(My "devices" light, the top one, is amber btw, but whatever, everything is working, just assume this means I have no additional devices plugged into the extra port on the back of the gateway.)
