Recently, Bell FibreOp (Fibe) stopped responding to unicast DHCP renewals. So the WAN DHCP client would try (unicast) renewals over and over, sometimes 20 times, before considering the server dead and switching to broadcast. Usually, that broadcast reply would return before the lease expired but bit of a race condition.

Thus, random momentary internet drops, as often as 20 min. between (Bells dhcp lease time).

Annoying, but I have now fixed!
