you can NOT expect that a F16->F18 upgrade will do USrMove better
The yum route, due to the time it takes to download everything
uninstall unused crap to reduce the amount of your setup
"package-cleanup --leaves --all" is your friend to find out

will show you new candidates (dependencies which are no longer
needed after the last mremoval)

and the network provider's "instability", seems to
cause me other issues.
why?
you can stop the upgrade while downloads are running
and continue at any time
"download everything" -> uninstall unused crap to reduce it
