- OK, I could have said this better. How about the following:
-
- The MTU setting to worry about is not on your end -- it's on
- your SLIP server. Get its MTU bumped up to something like 576
- bytes, set your MTU to match, and you won't have problems.
-
- The rest of what I said is right, at least until someone proves me
- wrong. :-)
