I've been trying to figure out why on earth my Comcast broadband connection kept getting stuck with 576 for the MTU. The Comcast DHCP server must have been recalling that from an old lease, because my FC-12 laptop would get an MTU of 1500 but my FC-12 desktop kept getting 576 (connecting each directly to the modem). Happy at MTU=1500 now. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address.
