- cbzbc 10mo agoSome of those (including many providers on Openreach) will support mini-jumbo frames that allow an MTU of 1500 inside pppoe.
- xiconfjs 10mo agoIsn‘t sub-1500 bytes the norm for residential internet access? (DOCSIS and DSL with PPPoE are the most common access protocols here in Germany)
- joecool1029 10mo ago> but those are rare. yeah sure, if you ignore the existence of literally every mobile isp.
- ranger_danger 10mo agoHard disagree... there are still a vast many providers around the world doing < 1500, such as PPPoE DSL.
