Vodafone Power Station compatibility with Firewalla Gold?
I’ve setup this kind of network, leveraging on a Vodafone fiber connection connected to a Firewalla Gold 1.46.6. I’ve about 70-75 IP devices connected (phones, macs, tablets, IoT,…).
Problem: from time to time the whole network works great. But… I’m recently getting more and more problems with the network. Some devices work perfectly, some (with no rules) suffer from no connection to very slow connection.
I’m getting crazy and cannot find what is really happening. The Firewalla log says that from time to time the Vodafone WAN is down… but VF says no problems with the fiber. And effectively when FW says network is absent, some devices work, some not. And these devices are not always the same…
Might you pls help me to pinpoint the issue?

What does the firewalla event say? see this https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/4405487405587-Firewalla-Network-Events

the event log says:
WAN VF disconnected
entering the details, i see some DNS test failed, some passed (always to github.com, but in different timings).
my chosen DNS server, on the main VF PowerStation router, is the classic google couple (8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4).
I’ve currently disconnected any ethernet traffic (except the “needed” synology nas and philips hue bridge), so to avoid potential network problems. In any case the switches are latest netgear models, in perfect state.
