PPPoE means a lower MTU than the internet default of 1500, so any sites not capable of performing Path MTU discovery properly will fail to communicate with you. Path MTU problems is still quite common, especially with people running homegrown firewalls where they add a simple "drop all ICMP traffic, people should not ping us" rule, forgetting that TCP/IP also makes significant use of ICMP.. > I will have to look into ip tables.
