I haven't tried to do 10Gb with it but pfSense isn't a horrible option. I've done 1G with left over computer parts and for the most part it works well. https://www.pfsense.org/ For "free" software it is pretty feature rich.

Hello masters of the Internet,
I was recently asked to set up networking at a VIP's home where he has Comcast "Gigabit Pro" service, which is delivered on a 10G-SR MM port on a Comcast-supplied Juniper ACX-2100 router.
Which customer router would you suggest for such a setup? It needs to do IPv4 NAT, DHCP, IPv4+IPv6 routing and have a decent L4 firewall (that also supports IPv6).
The customer pays for "2Gb" service (Comcast caps this at 2G+10% = 2.2Gbps) and would like to get what he pays for (*cough*) by having the ability to stream two 1Gbps streams (or at least achieve > 1.0Gbps).
I'm tempted to get another ACX-2100 and do a 4x1Gb LACP port-channel to the customer switch, or replace the AV-integrator-installed Cisco SG300-52P (Cisco switch with e.g. an EX-3300 with 10Gb uplinks).
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
