I believe there was a tweak guide on this site where you would find the right MTU setting by using the ping command in command promt and increasing the MTU until you had packet loss. Anyone know what i'm talking about?

the highest number you can put in for l without ping reporting "Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set." is your MTU-28.

It doesn't change the MTU
