Some weirdness caused by my router announcing a low MTU > but Fedora not reporting it? I'm grasping at straws here. I've not made any adjustments to my tcp/ip stack. My ethtool output is slightly different than yours but that may be a red herring. What I would do is use "wireshark" with a capture filter of "icmp" and see what is going out on the wire. What I would do is "ping -c 1 -s 2000 gw" and then check to see that 2 packets are being sent out with the first one being marked as a fragment. -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
