Bridging NH20T issue

Hello all:
I just had PureFibre 3GB set up this week, replacing my previous Shaw/Rogers connection.

I currently have a small PC with dual 2.5GB ethernet ports running OPNSense working as a router, and my other equipment connected behind that. It's been working great on the cable connection.

Once everything was set up with Telus, I changed the NH20T to run in bridged mode, with the bridging on the 10GB port, and connected that to the OPNSense box.

It worked great....for a bit. Usually after about an hour of being connected, everything just seems to stop working. (I'm usually streaming music all day, and the stream just drops out, and nothing else seems to be able to connect out.)
If I reboot the OPNSense box, or the NH20T, this revives the connection, until the next time the connection stops.

One interesting thing of note: if I try connecting a laptop directly to the NH20T on one of the other ports when it's in this state, the laptop doesn't register a link as active until the N20T is rebooted (...which leads me to believe the NH20T is acting up, rather than the OPNSense box).

If I run things in the "default" configuration (with no bridging and the Boost device connected to the 10GB port for wifi), things seem to work 100%.

Any ideas what might be causing issues when trying to bridge?

(I haven't tried bridging Port 1 yet...but that sort of defeats the purpose of my setting up bridging...)
