      So, ticking
      "IP Do-Not-Fragment compatibility"
      makes the issue go away.
      I'm not sure if that is the right solution or somehow tell Linux not to set DF bit on fragmented packets...

      Or is my conclusion wrong?

      Thanks.

        I don't know if that is the proper fix. My thought would be to find out what's causing this. What packets are being fragmented? If that setting only affects fragmented packets that have DF set, then I suppose it wouldn't be a problem. Still, I'd want to know why it's needed. As I mentioned, DF is used these days, for everything on Linux and TCP on Windows.

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...
