IPv6 packet loss with custom br0 network, but not with the bridge network

Featured Replies

I moved my smokeping docker container from my bridge network to my custom br0 network. However, once I did that, all my targets connecting via IPv6 are getting packet loss. Here's an example (anything that isn't green is when I get packet loss and the container is on the br0 network):

When I run a ping from within that container, I'm always getting packet loss when I run the command forcing IPv6. I don't get any packet loss on IPv4:

I monitor sites like google.com using smokeping, but I also monitor IP addresses like Quad9's DNS servers. With IP addresses, I'm not seeing any packet loss when testing the IPv4 9.9.9.9:

But I am seeing packet loss when I test Quad 9's IPv6 DNS servers:

So my issue is that any outbound connection to an IPv6 address is always getting some packet loss when in my custom br0 mode. Any ideas on what I should look into?

 

I'm on the latest unRAID 6.12.9. I'm using pfSense are my gateway, and IPv6 is handled via SLAAC.

 

Here are my interface settings:

Here is my routing table:
