While it is/was a personal use/experiment I have
used all the following under Windows 10 Pro's
Hyper-V with networking via hn0 Ethernet as seen
from the guest FreeBSD:

releng/11.1 (no longer around to remind me of the
             most recent -r?????? but various updates )
stable/11   (various updates, -r320807 currently)
head        (various updates, -r323147 currently)

I had no problems with my use. (By no means a traffic
match to your context but definitely used.)

In all cases the Virtual Switch Manager was tied to the
(builtin) "External network" that is listed as:

Intel(R) I211 Gigabit Network Connection

in the Virtual Switch Properties pop-up for
External network. The machine is not a server.

So not totally broken as far as I can tell. Something
more specific to your context would seem to also be
involved.

Hyper-V has worked nicely for assigning 14 of the machine's
16 hardware threads to FreeBSD and doing buildworld buildkernel
and poudriere based port builds. (Windows 10 Pro not being
otherwise busy.)
