WAN MTU Setup
The MTU (maximum transmission unit)is
trans mits. The normal MTU value for most Ethernet networks is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes
for PPPoE connections. For some ISP s, you might nee d to change the MTU. This is rarel y
required, and should not be done unless you are sure it is necessar y 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:
