If either of these work as required, they would probably be better placed 
in /etc/sysctl.conf
the syntax would be

net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 0
and/or
net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 0

sysctl will pick these changes up once at boot (it's run from the rc.sysinit 
script).
in rc.local they would not be made in runlevels S or 1 (it is possible that 
you may at some point need a fully functional network in single-user mode)
