Re: [smartBridges] MTU Settings

[Blaine Fleming]

I have the exact same issue.  What are you running for routers and 
firewalls on the client side and at your end?  Do you use PPPoE?  This 
problem is only present with clients that use smartBridges radios.  This 
has been proven by exchanging a client's radio for a WET11.  It runs 
flawless with the WET11 but fails the second I put the airBridge back.  The 
exact same antenna, pigtails and cat5 is used.  The only  change is the POE 
and the radio itself.

I am absolutely certain that this is not a DNS issue.  Initial thoughts 
were MTU or MSS.  Tweaking the MTU to 1452 and the MSS to 1412 seems to fix 
the issue for some but not all.  If I reset the airbridge back to factory 
defaults and reconfig it works again.  Burning defaults with simpleDeploy 
then restoring to defaults will fix it as well.  Both fixes are temporary 
lasting only a few hours at best.

which is on our own network), but they can get to google, foxnews and others.
If we change the MTU in their computer or router to 832 it works again.

Has anybody else run into this?

Does anybody know what the MTU setting in the ABO or Total is?

To make it even more confusing, if I plug my laptop into the customers network
it works fine without the need to change the MTU.
