So that is the question, if you are losing a huge quantity of packets, whilst I'm waiting for my next company 10 of November...

Which MTU would be better to set up... I'm talking about playing battlefield etc...

Thanks xDD

I hope you understand what I mean.

Hmm, your average ping time isn't too good either. I'm in the UK, and when I ping google.es, my average ping is 34ms. There's most likely an underlying problem; I don't think adjusting the MTU will help you with this.

Yea guys, is just between 17:00 and 00:30... the rest of the day is perfect 14 of ping and 0% packet lose...

I just want to know which is the best MTU, when you are losing a lor of packets. just to try it...

It sounds like your ISP is capping you, in my opinion. Also, I don't think there is an ideal MTU for loss of packets.

You can use this command to test (come down in size till success)

ping www.bbc.co.uk -f -l 1514

Pinging www.bbc.net.uk [212.58.246.90] with 1514 bytes of data:
Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set.

I don't understand very well what you mean... SORRY...

I've opened a CMD window I've tried but I don't understand very well what I'm doing and which are the steps that I've to follow. Thanks and sorry...

Don't focus on MTU. Focus on ISP. Who is it?

Is vergin media, but I'll change it in 15 days...

Please what I'm asking is that... If you are losing a lot of packets what I should do, to make the packets smaller instead of ONE BIG...

You know what I mean ? That is all... I know that I can but I don't know how... because like this is gonna be a little bit better...

and then after 00:30 I'm gonna set it up normal like this it will work properly, because as I said between 17:00 and 00:30 It doesn't work properly to play...

EDIT: You know guys leave it, it's impossible I'm using internet and sometimes it keeps thinking like 5 seconds is the same problem that I have playing... SO forget it...
