I read an article about ICS with PPPoE, and it specified that i must lower my MTU (maximum transmission unit). I followed the steps , lowered my MTU, and then restarted my computer. But surprise ... when i checked , the limit that worked the previous time was not good anymore. So i looked for a lower limit that worked, found it , set my MTU to that limit, and then restarted. But .... surprise :( ... this limit was not good either after restart. I repeated this operation a couple of times ... reaching a MTU of 500 bytes instead of 1480 (the starting point), but it still did not work ... Am i doing something wrong ? ... Have any of you encountered this problem before ? I would very much apreciate any help you could offer me :) Thanks !

Thanks for the link ... but i had read it. Also, i read the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base refering to the problem i have ; it sugested that i lower my MTU limit, which i did (as described above) ; but no matter how much i lower it , after i restart ... the limit somehow resets.

Only other thing I can think of is to open the router config and set the MTU at "Auto". The size should then be about 1500. This may only work with a DHCP connection however.
