| Guest | mtu tweak I need to tweak the mtu of my vista network connection to 1492 to connect properly to my ISP. On my old Win 2000 machine this was easily done with dr.tcp but this does not seem to work with vista. As a result I cannot access the MS web site or get updates. Help. Cheers Ian |

If you don't have a Cable/DSL Router, I *strongly* suggest getting one. If you are using a DSL Modem+router you should be able to set the MTU value of 1492 on it. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp |

| Guest | Re: mtu tweak From: "Ian Thompson-Bell" <ruffrecords@xxxxxx> | Already done that but I need also to set it at the vista PC end too. | Cheers | Ian No. You should not have to. I have DSL and I have hooked up Vista computers to my SOHO LAN without any problems with MTU=1492 set on my Linksys BEFSR81 Router. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp |

this I have set to 1492. However, I still have to set the mtu at the PC end on my Windows 2000 and Linux PCs connected to the router. When this is done they work fine - without it many web sites are not accessible, so I am as certain as I can be that setting the mtu in vista will fix the problem if only I could find out how to do it. I am reluctant to get a new router just to appease vista. Cheers Ian | ||||||||||||
