      When I change my MTU size on my wan interface to 1492 it doesnt seem to take…

      pppoe0: flags=88d1 <up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>metric 0 mtu 1500
      inet 65.249.x.x –> 65.249.x.x netmask 0xffffffff
      inet6 fe80::209:5bff:fe8f:1b71%pppoe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xa
      nd6 options=3 <performnud,accept_rtadv>Am I doing something wrong?

      This is an mlppp connection.

        Did you Save and Apply?

        Some parameters (I don't know specifically about mtu on pppoe) can't be changed dynamically. You might need to delete (or remove) the interface then create it again, or more simply, reboot.

          Saved, Apply'd and re-booted multiple times…

          Somewhere in the link between me and the ISP, things go very wrong when the mtu is over 1492 so Im trying to avoid going over...

          Thanks!

              Thanks for the input!

              Curious- do you have your pppoe set up at  /interfaces_ppps.php  or just on /interfaces.php?if=wan

                I see configurations on both sites…I used my old 1.2.3 config which was converted...
