They are static IP's, so I assume (you may know better?) DHCP lease times are
(or should be?) irrelevant.
Not sure if this what you mean but this might answer?
No worries, if it's static assigned and not a dhcp static assignment

If you can, try another cable modem.

I was not surprised that the Motorola 5100 cable modem on the Telstraclear
Network in New Zealand also lost connectivity within the
first 24 hours of operation. For pfSense the 5100 seems no more compatible than
the 5101. Given there seem to be no reports of
people having problems on other
I think we may have got this fixed, (all be it as a Kludge?)
Essentially the fix is to ping the static IP's first hop, if this is down then
flick the WAN NIC state down and up, this restores
the lost connection where the motorola 5101 has stopped sending packets
