This is a big question for the Microsoft product know-it-all, Hammer. How do you adjust your MTU settings? I hear they can limit your rates for upload. I wanna see if this can help with my lag in BF2. Any help is appreciated.

In what area? The router or the OS?


OS

For the Router you need to log into your router as Admin. It should be somewhere in the advanced tab you will see MTU settings. Enable MTU and type 1492 as the size.


Download and run MTU ping test when your done to test the results.
