MTU
The Maximum Transmission Unit size may be changed if you want to
optimize efficiency for uploading data through the WAN interface. The
default setting (1500 bytes) should be suitable for most users. Some
user may want to adjust the setting to optimize performance for
wireless traffic or when low latency is desired (such as with Internet
gaming). It is highly recommended that the user research how
adjusting the MTU may affect network traffic for better or worse.
