I removed vpnc gui and vpnc (didn't need it as I got OpenVPN to work), then went through the following steps:

1. Install 'rootsh' package
2. Open X Terminal
3. Enter 'sudo gainroot'
4. Enter 'mv /etc/udhcpc/libicd_network_ipv4.script.dpkg-dist /etc/udhcpc/libicd_network_ipv4.script'

rebooted, re-connected to LAN and...back in business!! Thank you Maemo community!

And regarding my fear of flashing and voiding my warranty, it was moot anyway as I've reflashed a couple of times earlier trying to get Knots2 working.

Cheers!
I too could not browse the web through my home wifi after the update. Narrowed it down to DNS resolution problem before coming here because I could browse by IP. I had previously installed/uninstalled vpnc prior to the update, and the above solution worked for me. Thanks. (extras , ahh!!!!!)

@DaveQB: I ran through the checks you walked through, and my /etc/dnsmasq.conf was good after the update and didn't need the changes you indicated, so I tried the above solution.
