22.7 Legacy Series / Re: None of my VLAN interfaces are working after upgrade to 22.7

22.7 Broke VLAN!!!
Everything worked prior to upgrading from 22.X to 22.7 and had been for years.
I initially saw this post and a potential solution (i.e. changing the "Interfaces>>Settings>>VLAN Hardware Filter" to "Default" when it was previously set to "Disable VLAN Hardware Filter" which by the way should have no impact on my system running modern NICs that fully support VLAN and all those other features (CRC, TSO, LRO...)
I rebooted the system a few dozen times adjusting all those settings within the Interfaces>>Settings, only to be left with the same result...a broken system/setup (VLAN inoperable)
I originally transitioned from pfSense to OPNsense but now I plan to abandon OPNsense after this debacle as it appears quality control is nonexsistent or lazy - time spent on this issue more than justifies an alternate firewall.
My final attempt and what push my decision to start pursing an alternative was a brand new clean install of OPNsense. I built a new/fresh installation from scratch and amazingly it worked!!! I was content but then during a power failure and a reboot of the system the issue returned and VLANs broke again.fine
Anyone else dealing with this and frustrated... I would rollback to a version prior to 22.7, seek alternatives or bang your head and spend hours troubleshooting to no avail.
