No, I simply used the defaults on that page.

Yes, I was using QoS in 3.7.5-2, and I kept the old configuration files (so I 
didn’t have to re-enter credentials for my DSL link, etc.) I guess it seems 
likely that I may have been running *both* (!)

Would a better upgrade path be to start with 3.7.5-2, then disable the QoS, 
then flash with 3.10.18-1? (My intuition tells me that this would remove the 
QoS settings from the loop…)

It’s pretty easy to re-flash with 3.10.18-1 and run the tc commands. If 
disabling QoS makes sense, then after I do the ’tc’ experiment, I’ll re-flash 
with 3.7.5-2, turn off QoS, then reflash to 3.10.18-1. But it’ll have to wait 
’til dark so no one else is using it. :-)
