First time post here. Did a few google searches, but was unable to find a fix for my issue. I've been hosting game servers for various indie games a while now, so I'm pretty familiar with a standard home port forward.
However, I've recently turned one of my own old PC's into a PFsense router/firewall. It's going alright, I've setup some NAT/Firewall rules to allow the UDP port for 34179 (Standard port) and I'm piping it through to my servers address, however, when I launch my game as a client/server (for testing, the idea is to have it headless), I'm told that the game cannot get my external IP address.
I've had my co-workers go over my NAT rules to make sure they're right. Am I missing a port, are any of you able to point me in the right direction. I can see in the logs it's getting my correct IP address.

So after I posted this - I realised I was using both IPv6 and v4 on my pfsense WAN interface. I stopped this, because lets face it, Ipv6 blows and I was able to launch the game without the error. I had setup a DMZ to allow everything (which I turned off) and setup the NAT/Firewall rules. Now when I try to host, I'm getting 0.0.0.0:34197 on the Best Guest... Anymore idea?
