Description

See https://forum.netgate.com/topic/136852/2-4-4-gateway-group-slow-or-never-to-switch-back-to-tier-1. (No responses yet as of this posting.)

I have a gateway group with 2 gateways, one at Tier 1 and the other at Tier 2. I've been having lots of trouble with my Tier 1 link lately and pfSense will switch over to the Tier 2 link, but when the Tier 1 gateway comes back within limits (latency, packet loss) the routing does not switch back to the Tier 1 gateway. The Gateways widget on the home page shows the Tier 1 as "online" as does Status -> Gateways and Status -> Gateway Groups. The log file shows an alarm for latency and then cleared for latency.

I've set that gateway group as the default gateway and am also sending traffic to it with a LAN firewall rule.
