Re: [PLUG] IP masquerading problem


If you're using a DSL line (or maybe other connections too?) their might
be a weird MTU setting.  For example, with my Verizon DSL at home, the
computers have to be set to a MTU of 1306.  It's because of the PPPoE
overhead.  And that's what can cause certain sites to work, and other
ones not to.

Take a look at ifconfig, and see if it has any weird MTU settings.
