Hi, For all PPPoE connections I recommend an MTU setting of 1460 or bellow. The easiest way to set this on client machines on a network is to use a small utility called DR TCP. This saves users from having to fumble around in the registry which can be very dangerous!!! Available for download here: ftp://ftp.wn.com.au/windows/dialup/DRTCP021.exe Good luck. Chris aka AKKO.
