MTU:
The MTU (maximum transmission unit) is the largest data packet a
network device transmits. The normal MTU value for most Ethernet
networks is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes for PPPoE connections. For some
ISPs, you might need to change the MTU. This should not be done unless
it is necessary for your ISP connection.

recommended to use the default MTU value. In case any of the
following circumstances occurs, you may modify the MTU value.
You have problems connecting to your ISP or other Internet service,
and either your ISP or our technical support suggests changing the
MTU value.
You use a VPN and encounter serious performance problems.
You used a program to optimize MTU performance, and you have
connectivity or performance problems.
If you suspect an MTU problem, try changing the MTU to 1400. If this does
not help, gradually reduce the MTU from the maximum value 1500
until the issue disappears.
The common MTU sizes and applications are listed in the table below.
MTU
Application
1500
Typical for connections that do not use PPPoE or a VPN.
