My quest for perfect firewall goes on.

I already tried several ones:
1. openwrt - not enough functionality
2. pfSense - tons of functionality but broken network stack, I could only get 4GB on 10G connection.
3. Untangle - seemed perfect at the beginning, after that I have discovered bridge does not transmit broadcasts between interfaces, bought support hoping that they would help me, unfortunately they said " Unfortunately at this point we can not troubleshoot any further as you have many a multitude of command line changes and that is not supported. "
While trying to resolve it on my own I noticed that user base is very small and that network stack does not behave like normal Linux. These two together pretty much make it impossible to use.
