Section 6 - Troubleshooting
3. Why can’t I connect to certain sites or send and receive emails when connecting through my access point?
If you are having a problem sending or receiving email, or connecting to secure sites such as eBay, banking sites, and Hotmail,
we suggest lowering the MTU in increments of ten (Ex. 1492, 1482, 1472, etc).
Note: AOL DSL+ users must use MTU of 1400.
To find the proper MTU Size, you’ll have to do a special ping of the destination you’re trying to go to. A destination could be
another computer, or a URL.
• Click on
Start
and then click
Run
.
• Windows
®
95, 98, and Me users type in command (Windows
®
NT, 2000, and XP users type in cmd) and click
Enter
(or click
OK
).
• Once the window opens, you’ll need to do a special ping. Use the following syntax:
ping [url] [-f] [-l] [MTU value]
Example:
ping yahoo.com -f -l 1472
You should start at 1472 and work your way down by 10 each time.
