preserve the cron settings in the xml.

Few ISPs (especially home users offers) reset their
connection every 24h. I don't live in New Zealand, so
I don't know Telstraclear Network, but are you really
sure is it an equipment issue or a line problem (e.g.
interferences, etc...)?
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 net
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

Until we find a permanent solution it seems I may be able to do a temporary fix.
Firstly I note that during a download I can run
ifconfig em0 down; ifconfig em0 up
without apparently interrupting the download! This fixes the problem - until
it occurs again. Looking around (using Go
