Hi all,

Some websites are not working correctly for me.  This was the same issue I have when the MTU is not set correctly in IPv4, so I'm guessing it's the same issue.

considering values for MTU on ppp0, can anyone suggest appropriate values for ipv6?

I have read that since IP6 packets must fit in IP4, that if you are having problems, start at about 1280.
