We have een reports on this mailing list that some routers or
firewalls mis-handle TCP features such as window scaling and ECN.
Of course it is possible that the problem is not with your
nearest router, but elsewhere in the network.

Disable TCP window scaling in the kernel.
*BSD: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1323=0
LInux: sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0
Append the corresponding name=value setting to /etc/sysctl.conf
to make this setting active on each reboot.
