•MRU – The Maximum Receive Unit the DSL connection can receive. It is a negotiated value that asks the provider to send packets of no more than this number of bytes. The maximum specified value is 1500, although some DSL/ISP providers require a larger value. The minimum MRU value is 128.

•Enforce MRU – Check this box if you experience problems accessing the Internet over a PPPoE connection. This feature will force all TCP traffic to conform with PPP MRU by changing TCP Maximum Segment Size to
