Suspected Strange fragmentation problem
-
Hi there.
I'm having connection problems with my setup. I was running ADSL fine with pfsense, but sadly had to change over to a wireless system. The signal might not be to great, which might compact the problem. What happens is a pppoe connection is established, I can browse and download fine, doens't seem to be a problem. However mail does not work. I have tested and I can telnet in do list command and retr a mail. I get the some of the headers and there is stops. I get also cannot connect to msn, however yahoo and skype works fine.
I suspect it's fragmented packets as my system logs contains pretty much this :

Feb 18 14:45:20 pfSense kernel: pf_normalize_ip: reass frag 40712 @ 40-1407This is about 3-4 times ever second in log file.
please can anybody give me any kind of advise on what to look for or test or change to fix this.
Thanks in advance.
