        after losing 2 days of sleep
        the problem was solved after disabling "Block private networks and loopback addresses" and/or "Block bogon networks" that i had on the WAN interface
        it was mentioned here

        https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/9631
        also a route come out of nowhere after cheking the routing table i had the ip from general settings / DNS inside the routing table
