      Ok, so it has been a few hours and USPS dropped off a shiny new 4 port intel nic that I threw in a spare computer and tossed a 64GB SSD in and all is well in the world. I have a feeling its something related to my unRaid servers NIC cards or something with the virtualization of pfSense within unRaid. I might toss this nic in my unRaid box and see if I can get it working with the new nic but either way, im up and running just fine on a different computer.

        So my router is requesting and I see a PD and ipv6 ip in the Logs but the last part of the log file does state no responses were received. Is their anything that could be preventing this request to go out my WAN to the ISP?

        and the send request does not seem to be a routable address is local link ff02

          That is not link-local. It is multicast to ff02::1:2 (All_DHCP_Relay_Agents_and_Servers).

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHCPv6

          Your problem is there is no response.

          In order to verify the packet is actually going out on the wire, you will have to capture on the wire itself.

          Been doing this a while and I have never seen a transmission out a port in a pcap that was not actually sent out on the wire.

            @derelict Misconfigured on my Part or the ISP? I have installed pfsense from scratch and configured only WAN And LAN to test or verify its nothing in my configuration So clean install I still hang on WAN at boot, and no ipv6 is assigned. Only hardware is TWC modem, but its bridged. are their settings even in Bridge mode I need to be aware of?
            How else can I configure or Wipe the WAN settings back to Default?

              You can't. They can either provide the information you need to configure the WAN interface or I guess it doesn't work.

              Not possible for me to try it for you because I don't have one of those connections available to test on.

              Not really sure what to recommend that hasn't already been said. You have never posted any logs that actually showed any kind of response to the DHCPv6 solicits.

                @derelict I do appreciate you helping me sorry if I neglected to upload a log. If I debug the logfile for just DHCP this is what I capture from Solicit too Failure:

                    I spoke too soon, I can ping and trace ipv6 from lan and wan using diag in pfsense, but no pc's on network can route traffic out. and when I can do tracert from pc first hope is LAN ip not Gateway IP.

                      Going to have to show us the interface config you end up with on the client, the routing table on the client, and the firewall rules on the LAN interface for starters. And the routing table on the firewall.

                        The DUID should be saved in the config anyway. I use DUID-LLT. You can manually get a new time in seconds with date "+%s"

                        If you want the DUID-LLT to more closely resemble the one pfSense generates, use this, since they actually calculate from 1/1/2000 instead of 1/1/1970...

                        expr $(date +%s) - 946684800
