Thank you very much for your tip - it worked. My MTU values also droped with 28 for each time I reset the clients MTU value. I few things was different though: I'm using PPPoA (PPP over ATM) but apperently same problem. Also the MTU value was not set on my host so I thought it defaulted to MTU = 1500 but apperently not because as soon as I set host MTU to 1472 my client worked. So thanks again and good luck anyone...
