'Change the MTU and RWIN Settings' in Vista?

My MTU settings have been giving me major problems since an upgrade to my ADSL connection (in the UK). Basically without setting things manually I have no access to various web sites including everything Microsoft-related (e.g. Windows Update).

I have used 'DrTCP' software to set my MTU to 1430 and my RWIN to 65535 for all my Windows XP PCs, but I've now put Windows Vista RC1 onto one of my PCs and it can't get to Windows Update etc., and DrTCP is not compatible with Vista.

Does anyone know exactly how to set my MTU to 1430 and my RWIN to 65535 in Vista, for my network connection? Without this info my Vista install is basically useless as I can't keep it up to date with Windows Updates etc. :(
