That's what I did. I waited about 10s (and later 3s) and tried multiple
times. :(

That's already Y for me:

$ cat
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-5/1-5:3.0/net/wwp0s20f0u5c3/cdc_ncm/ndp_to_end
Y

Should I set it to N and then later Y as well?

I'm on 4.7.0-rc4-amd64 at the moment.

Is there any other tricks you've found out? In the old posts, I see you
rebooted your machine a lot. Is that still needed?
