WAN MTU Setup
The MTU (maximum transmission unit) is the largest data packet a network device
transmits. The normal MTU value for most Ethernet networks is 1500 bytes, or
1492 bytes for PPPoE connections. For some ISPs, you might need to change the
MTU. This is rarely required, and should not be done unless you are sure it is
necessary for your ISP connection. When one network device communicates across
the Internet with another, the data packets travel through many devices along the
way. If a device in the data path has a smaller MTU value than the other devices,
the data packets have to be "fragmented" to accommodate the device with the
smallest MTU value.
The best MTU value for Tenda routers is often just the factory default value. In
some situations, changing the MTU value fixes one problem but causes another.
Leave the MTU unchanged unless one of these situations occurs:
