Post-mortem: this seems to work. Hoever, mss is 1460 or less, assuming mtu
is 1492.
dsl1.ahr(config-if)#ip tcp adjust-mss ?
<500-1460> Maximum segment size in bytes
Key (which took me a moment to figure out): the mss MUST be AT LEAST 32
bytes or more less than MTU; for a while, I had MTU set to 1400 on the
aggregation side, and didn't realise it, and this didn't work. As soon as
I upped the MTU to 1492, all started working, including all broken sites
and quicken.
