Re: MTU, PPPoE, Servers and LinkSys Routers

This worked like a charm!!!!

In Linux (Mandrake 7.2)

# /sbin/ifconfig eth0 mtu 1410
- to try it out (assuming eth0 is your ethernet port).

To make the change stick across reboots I added a line:

MTU=1410

to file: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

(values slightly larger than 1410 may work also, refer back to the initial post)

Thanks for the info, Gwl. And it shouldn't matter Linux, Windows or MAC - if the wrong MTU gets negotiated it's toast.
