That's why many sites are not reachable after unsetting the option in the
kernel.
I had the same problem and echoing '0'to /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn did
the trick. But for the following kernels I just disabled the
option. Anyway I am still able to echo /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn. And I
have the same problems.
So I am recompiling test8-pre4 with tcp_ecn enabled and then echoing 0 to
the sysctl option.
