Description

This is probably a twist on BUG # 12920 [[https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12920?tab=properties]]

Tier 1 of a Gateway Group is a PPPoE interface, 1gps.
Tier 2 of the same Gateway Group is a static IPv4 connection. 100mbps.

When the PPPoE Tier disconnects (and the simplest action is to push the disconnect button), the default route is removed.
The PPPoE Tier shows as "Pending" in the Gateways Status page.
The dpinger log show 5 consecutive "WAN_PPPOE ww.xx.yy.zz: sendto error: 65" error messages

There is no failover and the box is isolated from the world ;-(

The behavior is the same if the trigger is packet loss or member down.

Manually logging through the LAN and changing the "Default Gateway IPv4" restores connectivity to the Tier 2 member.

I do not know how "Member down" should be interpreted in the case of a PPP interface. Obviously, there is 100% packet loss here. Can failover occur in this case ?
