    Thanks to the bug fixes in 2.6.10, I'm trying it some more. Now I
    notice that my dialup connection is a bit slower than it was under 2.4.27.

    For example, I'm downloading at about 3.0 kb/s versus 4.7 kb/s on 2.4.

    I've been googling for advice, but come up empty. I recall seeing some
    advice back in the 2.6.7 era that it helps to disable ipv4 (or was it
    ipv6) by adding something like 'alias net-pf10-off' to
    /etc/modutils/aliases, but am not sure.

    Anyone know how I can fix this?

    Paul
