ou_ryperd Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hi I am using iburst via pppoe and eth0 I need to set the MTU to 1352 for best results (http://www.linux.org.za/Lists-Archives/glu...3/msg00278.html) Do I set eth0 and ppp0 to MTU 1352, and how do I do this (which files do I edit) ? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aus9 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 (edited) I add a line to my /etc/rc.local /sbin/ifconfig eth0 mtu 1352 and reboot open a terminal and run ifconfig it should show new mtu setting ...if not I have failed oops Edited January 15, 2007 by aus9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 On my Mandriva 2005 system, I added MTU=XXXX to the file: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ou_ryperd Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Thanks for your replies. I take it there's no setting to be changed for ppp0 then ? Like in dsl-provider ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 I do not know. My DSL provider supplied me with a modem/router with a built in PPPoE client Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
