First, I've already adjusted the MTU value on this machine from 1492 to
1400 and then all the way down to 576. Made no difference. My Linksys
router also has an MTU setting and it's at 1492. But, other machines
behind this router can access www.kde.org, so the router's not causing a
problem, right ??
Anyway, I *CAN* access gmx.de... though I cant read any of it ! :) As
you expected, I can access your site (and it's in English !).
