Hmm. I didn't really believe it could be an across the board problem
without anyone else noticing, but that leaves me with the question as to
what is going on here.  I've got a similar claimed mtu of 1500.   

    [wolfgang@arbol ~]$ ip link show p34p1
    3: p34p1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 08:60:6e:74:6f:e2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Using a bit of binary search it turns out my largest working ping is 512
bytes.  That is a very suspicious number because it is power of two and
the actual packet still has a handful of bytes slapped onto the front
making it a non power of two.   

    [wolfgang@arbol ~]$ ping -s 512 gw
    PING gw.wsrcc.com (192.168.35.1) 512(540) bytes of data.
    520 bytes from gw.wsrcc.com (192.168.35.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.538 ms
    520 bytes from gw.wsrcc.com (192.168.35.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.521 ms

I've turned off all the hardware accelerators that ethtool knows about.
No change.

    [wolfgang@arbol ~]$ ethtool -k p34p1

What is left?  Some weirdness caused by my router announcing a low MTU
but Fedora not reporting it?  I'm grasping at straws here.
