On and off issue with IPV6 connection

Okay, there is an active issue with my IPV6. Addressess always get handed out to clients, however after a few hours i have to restart the firewall to fully restore ipv6 lan to wan connection to clients. Something it happening internally on the network that is forcing the firewall to eventually drop ipv6 WAN outbound connection from lan clients. I have been trying to figure it out with no luck. No worries about my actual addressing, that aspect works fine. All clients in question are recieving address assigments and options over ipv6 network with no problem. The connection eventually drops to the WAN6.

Also, when the issue happens I am still able to ping6 to the outside world on the router himself.

root@OpenWrt:~# ping6 ipv6.google.com

I wanted to let everyone know, I think I have found the solution. If it works, I will come back here and post what i did to help other users down this path.
