Stalled downloads

[swazi]

Hi

I have an ISDN line using kppp. Whenever i download anything over about 150K the download stalls then resumes and so continues. This happens with http browsing, ftp and large pop3 emails. Anything small is nice and quick.

Large files also cause my connection to disconnect.

I seem to have the right init string for the extenal ISDN modem.

Try changing your mtu to smaller one.
You can set your mtu in /etc/network/interfaces
EX:
auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback


iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
mtu 1448
