MTU Setting
----------
We have our setting at 740.

Before it was something of about 1400.

At that level we would establish a connection but some things would work and not some others.
Once we decreased it to 740 it worked great.
But use the following rule:
When lowering the MTU make sure it is a multiple of 8 + 20 bytes for the header (MTU = (X*8)+20)
