Re: cable modem connection slower than dial up



Ok I added the following line in my /etc/network/interfaces file

auto eth0
...
...
up ifconfig mtu 1450

after doing a ifdown -a and ifup -a I could verify the mtu by ifconfig
-a.
I tried 1450, 1400, 1300, 1200, .....700.  None of which seemed to
help.

how do I check on the ipv6 packet?
