eigrp and managed ethernet

EIGRP timers over WAN media default to 60 seconds. Neighborship will not
expire for up to 180 seconds. To verify your EIGRP neighborship do a "show
ip eigrp neighbor"

What is really bizarre is that I am down for minutes not seconds and the
timers never fire. If I don't manually passive the connection eigrp will for
some reason think there is a neighbor even though I am unable to source ping
across the WAN.
