Here's the dump after "reenable ppp3" (no traffic through provider):

And here's the dump after "restart" (traffic OK through provider):

OK, I was just asking because the tbf qdisc is set by Shorewall when enabling 
traffic shaping. Also , /usr/share/shorewall/Shorewall/Tc.pm seems to deal with 
fq_codel, and there's documentation referencing fq_codel here:

http://shorewall.net/manpages4/manpages/shorewall-tcclasses.html
http://shorewall.org/traffic_shaping.htm

Anyway, I'll study that later on if time permits.

Thanks,
