Poor wifi-reception, bad connectors, too long cable, wrong MTU, RFI, LFD, ......

ARGH#@$--my MTU setting got lost over night! i'm on one of those old networks that require MTU to be set below 1500, at 1492 exactly for best restults, as i figured out long ago. for some reason this setting has disappeared recently. (i'm sure i didn't remove it knowingly; have to look into /etc/zypp/history, if any part of network conf. got updated...)

thanks to your reply i went and checked my LAN cable, in case the rats had gnawed through it again (happened once already), but that looked ok. then i googled around for those 'reassembled pdu's, and found MTU mentioned, as you did in your reply.

i'm sorry for for clogging up the list with my unrelated posts; everything works as it's supposed to now (which is poor enough).

No probem, With all aspects of networking, it just amazes me that it works at all. Not just problems like yours, but DNS, DHCP, pxe, tftp, LDAP, SIP, IAX, kerberos... Can you imagine that i actually (sometimes) enjoy the fact of having a nicely up-and-running department?
