How do I get the MTU setting for the host?

I am a general user on a corporate network. I am attempting to connect to websites
that give me incomplete files. I finally figured out that the problem is the MTU
size.
However, whenever I set the MTU size on my client, after I reboot, the MTU size that
works decreases by 28 bytes, the size of a packet header. It goes down another notch
each time I set it to a lower value.
I did some reading on this site and found someone who figured out that if the MTU
of the host is less than the MTU of the client, the client MTU will decrease until
the client matches the server. This person merely reset the MTU on the server and
set the client MTU to match.
However, I am not a network admin and have no such rights. How can I find out the
MTU setting of the server I am connected to?
