So I am not sure how to explain this, but something strange is happening on my Afrihost/Frogfoot fibre connection.
Whenever I reboot my router I get a "local" WAN IP address, either 192.168.4.XXX or 192.168.3.XXX. When this happens I cannot access the internet at all and all traffic gets redirected to 192.168.3.1 or 192.168.4.1, which shows a login page for a Hauwei AX3 router. Even stranger is I do not have a Hauwei router at all.
My first thought was to connect my computer directly to the ONT and skip my router completely, but the same thing happens.
One of the ways I found to fix this, is to constantly reboot my router till I magically get a "normal" WAN IP and then everything works fine again, till I reboot again. Another way I found to fix this is to use a pfsense router and setting the "Reject leases from" setting to "192.168.3.1,192.168.4.1" on the WAN interface.
Any insight on what might be causing this would be great.
