Thumbs up Changing MTU on Vista can make a difference!

Hi,

I've been looking through these forums trying to workout why I could get 7Mbps on my Xp Laptop but only 4Mbps on my Vista PC.

Turns out that it was my MTU setting that was the problem (it was this post that finally got me there: Mtu).

So if your performance is poor (for your connection speed) then it's definately worth checkin the MTU, espaecially if you may have messed around with it in the past. Not that I would do such a thing

Thanks,

John.
