Hi,

I have the following spec 2700HGV

Hardware: 2701-100589-005
Firmware: 6.1.1.48.1-enh.tm
ISP: Zen ADSL2+


and I'm trying to change the MTU value of my ISP (Zen Internet).  However, the usual workaround for entering the ADSL ISP credentials doesn't allow me to change the MTU value from 1500.  I want to experiment with 1438 and upwards.  Can anyone point me in the right direction please?


I'm getting the following line stats - can anyone see anything from this lot that would be worth a tweak / try?

Don't change the MTU in the router, change it in the OS. :)
