After device reset Barricade receives IP offer and gets a new WAN IP. After few hours you can see in the log something like:
08/03/2009  13:00:58 DHCP Client: [WAN]Could not find DHCP daemon to get information08/03/2009  13:01:18 DHCP Client: [WAN]Send Request, Request IP=78.45.74.23908/03/2009  13:01:20 DHCP Client: [WAN]Send Request, Request IP=78.45.74.239...08/03/2009  13:02:18 DHCP Client: [WAN]Send Discover...08/03/2009  13:09:43 192.168.2.106 login success...08/03/2009  13:09:58 DHCP Client: [WAN]Receive Ack from 213.46.172.166,Lease time=21600...08/03/2009  13:21:47 NTP Date/Time updated.
As you can see above, it looses the IP (WAN shows 0.0.0.0) and connection is lost forever until I log in and restart (or go WAN->More Configuration->Save Settings.)
Then again for few hours it is working.
I tried three differen ver. of FW (12,13,14) but it is always the same. I also contacted my provider, byt it is the largest on we have and they refused to dealt with this issue by saying that all hundreads thousands of customers do not have any troubles / please check your device. :-(

Any idea how to sort this out?
Thanks a lot.
