I just completed a solo to get my Vigilance commendation pack and I'm sure plenty of people have done it too, so I guess it's time to share our setups and highlights.

My setup:
class: Human Soldier
Weapon: Claymore X 
Map: Ghost - one of my favourite maps
Enemy: Geth - the easiest enemy out there, right? Right?
Difficulty: Bronze - I don't solo at all, did a couple several months ago, was all
3/6/10: Headhunt/Escort (yay for Community goal!)/Disable 4

The most annoying was the last mission. I managed to disable three devices, but the fourth one had a bunch of enemies close to it already, so I tried to kite them away by running around the map. Trouble is, I effectively just made them turn around on spot, because I was running around them, so I managed to disable the last device with some 5 seconds left on the clock. Almost died on wave 11, but Adrenaline Rush shield recharge saved my ass.

I went for Human Solider because it's one of my favourite classes and because Adrenaline Rush functions pretty much the same as Ops pack, so I was, in a way, cheating.

Finally got Quickmatch to stop trolling me - it let people into my solo private games when playing Kroguard, so I gave up on the Krogan.

My setup:
Asari Justicar Adept - tank build, no pull.
Weapon: Harrier III
Map: Firebase Dagger (still a favourite of mine)
Enemy: Cerberus.
Difficulty: Bronze, I normally don't solo MP being a team game.
3/6/10: Escort/ Escort/ Disable 4

Basic strategy was camping in the bubble near an ammo box and cover, made them come to me. Reave and shoot.
Escort mission, I used the bubble to move...went to the outer limits of the drone circle and cast bubble, stayed in bubble until drone almost cleared it, then repeated until I reached the EZ. Made sure to keep reave killing someone for the added protection..
Disable Devices, I took out all troops surrounding device, bubble then disable. A phantom got near to me on the 4th device, but I got lucky and finished before she could bring my shields down.

Reave all the things! :)

Claymore X+Human Soldier? Lots of platforms went offline on that day. Personally, I think everybody's gonna use their go-to class. I debated on whether I should go with: the N7 Slayer or N7 Destroyer (my personal favs., first and second respectively). After playing through, I wish I would've went with the N7 Slayer, things just seem more natural/easier for me with him.

I choose the N7 Destroyer (One-One-Seven, hail to the Chief), I picked Firebase Glacier for easy spawn control, I chose Geth for lack of their Insta-kill ability (oh goodness, I hope Bioware isn't reading this llooll *Geth Insta-kill buff*). Objectives were: Escort, the four-loads (yup, I'm leaving it that way) and hack.

Wasn't really a problem, but wave 10 didn't go as smoothly as I'd like; I started running low on 'nades and I didn't want to leave the upload-circle. Good luck to everybody else--especially if you're playing public matches. Somebody out there's joining lobbies, using ammo-packs and quitting for the heck of it...admittedly, makes me laugh a bit.

My setup:
Vorcha Soldier
Weapon N7 Crusader 5
Map: Firebase Dagger
Enemy: Cerberus (I find them easier than geth)
Difficulty: Bronze, I dislike solo'ing greatly, however... It needed to be done
3/6/10: Escort/Disable 4/ Disable 4

Basic strategy: Mantain distance from the enemy forces and pick them off, or make them group up and throw in a cluster grenade or with the Crusader. Flamethrower for any troops that get within melee range (Phantom & Altas) The Disable mission was kinda pushing it, thanks gods for Vorcha bloodlust..

I've done it about five times to be safe. The five characters I used were, SI, AA, Destroyer, Fury and Slayer-he was the most difficult of the five by far due the PD draining barrier.

Krogan Sentinel
Reegar X, Damage/Blade
Glacier/Cerberus/Bronze
Hack/Pizza/Pizza
Level 1 equipment, Level 3 strength enhancer, Juggernaut 5 gear

Melee ALL the things! Well, I was originally going to do that, but decided to use my gun and grenades to speed things up a little bit. Heavy melee will one shot everything short of atlases, and with tech armor and rage you are pretty much invincible. I also got a couple kill streaks with the lift grenades since they one shot guardians, troopers, and centurions.

Slayer vs Cerberus on Glacier.

Phase Disruptor will OSK an entire room full of troopers on Bronze.

Phantoms? No problem, I just blast them twice.

I did it with Kroguard, Human Vanguard, and Shadow. I almost solo'd it on silver with a Human Vanguard but the last objective was a kill and got surrounded and stun'd and killed. I used a revive pack and rocket to finish that one.

Kroguard, bronze, Geth, Glacier. Wraith II. Blah blah blah.

Disruptor and Cy mod for fun.

Objectives were 2x pizza and then assassinations.

Mild scare when the first target was a Prime in a roomful of geth, and I had only about a minute left to kill him.

My setup:
class: Krogan Vanguard
Weapon: Piranha X
Map: Glacier
Enemy: Geth
Difficulty: Bronze
3/6/10: Pizza Delivery/Targets/Pizza Delivery

Easy with the Kroguard, while using additional consumables. The Geth had no answer to him!

Interesting to see Glacier is the map of choice for many people. I feel the map might be a little too small if you need to complete the Disable 4 mission. At least that's what happened the last time I tried soloing on Glacier. Burned to death by Pyros :(

I used my geth engineer (who dosnt have hunter mode, instead having shield restore turret and stupid amounts of shielding) with a geth plasma shotty (Ammo/Dmg mod)

Cerberus/giant/bronze ( I <3 glacier but giant is easier to lead enemies around by their nose for disable objectives and has lots of alternative paths for pizza delivery)

Used Shotgun rail amp 2, Shield boost IV(gear), Cyclonic III and warp ammo III which basically ment a charged shot obliterated anything short of a atlas from across the map, turret was nice for disable objective (of which I had one) also did pizza and R2DTour for a grand total of 19:11 time.
