            No DHCPOFFERS received.

            maybe try with e1000 driver instead of vmnet3

              So i need to reset the Pfsense ESXI to default.
              inside the esxi change both adapters from vmnet3 to e1000.
              fire up PfSense and do it all over?

                no just stop pfsense, edit the vm change from vmxnet3 to e1000 restart the vm, do it only for wan.
                when you start pfsense it will noticed the change and ask you for the new wan interface in the console

                      there is nothing wrong in the log this time, must be something on your esxi or the network card or the cable

                        since 3 hours it is working perfect.
                        the only thing that i changed was IPv6 Configuration Typefrom None to DHCP6.

                          ok, since a couple of day's i notice that the server still blacks out and i need to reboot the complete ESXI server.
                          When i only reboot the Pfsense VM it wont work.

                          the second thing that i noticed is when my internet speed is FULLY used. ( i have a 1GB line ) that's when it happens.
                          So i have tried reducing the speed in the newsgroups download but still same problem.

                          So it comes down to this: when i use newsgroups for downloading some files it's going down.
                          so i tought, could it be the network card that i'm using for both WAN and LAN?

                          so i want to add another network card to the ESXI server with 4 ports to try it out.
                          But can i make it so that ALL the 4 ports are available for the LAN network in the same subnet? 10.0.0.1/24.
                          i really like it that way, then i can connect my nas, and both my raspberry to the remaining 3 network ports.
