Is there anyway I can improve PPPoE speed
-
I have 15mb dsl i feel like my pfsense hold it back

If you have a 15Mbps WAN it's very unlikely your hardware is reducing that. Even an ALIX will run that easy.
What speed are you seeing? How are you measuring? How does that compare with connecting to PPPoE directly.

Steveuse a lan cable plug into router on ap mode wifi trun off i did a speed test from isp website 10MB down load by useing my PC.

Ok, well what is your pfSense hardware?
What speed do you see if you connect the PPPoE directly to the client?

So are you talking about megabytes or megabits, there is a huge difference.

@Grimson megabits

@stephenw10 TS140 (ThinkServer) with on broad Intel I217LM): and Intel pci PRO/1000 GT the processor Intel i3-4150 with 4gb ddr3 ram speed test i ran i got 10 MB

Anything should handle that with ease unless there is a bad configuration issue such as one of the NICs set to the wrong speed/duplex.
How is pfSense connected here? What is it running on?
You will need to connect directly to the PPPoE with a client to test the speed without pfSense in-line.

WAN PPPoE default MTU
Lan port got to router in AP mode default MTU
PFsense NAT Reflection mode for port forwards setting is pure nat
Installed Packages Squild
UPnP & NAT-PMP Enable UPnP & NAT-PMP -
But what hardware is pfSense running on? What CPU? How much RAM etc....
-
processor Core i3-4150 CPU @ 3.50GHz
4 CPUs:
4gb ddr3 ram -
Ok, well with that hardware I doubt you'd even notice the CPU usage at 10Mbps.
You need to test a direct connection first to see if you are actually losing anything.

I prob has fix it self. I find out my phone wire is shorting out my isp fix replace the cable
