bundled with this request, or possibly with another issue request... The internet path may be down upstream, e.g. a home network router or the service provider may be the failure point. The WAN gateway may still attempt to route traffic to the internet, but it never reaches. A periodic check to e.g. 8.8.8.8 or other reliable internet service to determine if the internet is still reachable could be used to turn the gateway advertisement on/off and automatically reroute the traffic to another gateway.
