Hi some weeks ago I was experiencing problems with posting at abandonia's forum.
All happened since I came back to India and changed from server so I though it was a server problem. but actually it was a modem/router settings problem.
I don't know what it means but I am posting this to share the solution with anyone that might need it.

My router setting was by default with 1500 Mtu speed , I read on other forums that some people experienced problems login to some pages and they solved the problem changing the Mtu speed to 1452... so I did it and Guess what?
I am back writing posts here.:thumbs:

So If anyone lives in India and is experiencing these problems try this solution on the modem/router settings (usually at LAN settings or network settings): Just change your Mtu speed to 1452 or less and see...


Pd: I would appreciate very much if someone of our computer experts could explain what is Mtu speed on a modem settings....

thank you and I am very happy being able to post again at abandonia's forum

wow, never experienced this or had to reset that thing. and what's weirdest is that you needed to lower it, not raise it.

The term PMTU (Path MTU) is sometimes used to describe the MTU along an entire network path. The PMTU will always be equal to the smallest MTU along the entire path which the datagram must travel.

so mu guess would be that your isp's default mtu was 1452 and you used to send 1500. if you look on the default sizes of MTU, i guess you're on IEEE 802.3. but your isp network administrator is weird anyways, because it says that standard maximum packet size is 1518 bytes on that one

and btw i think this belongs to technical or compatibility or something=S

Hummm... This have nothing to do with troubleshooting, but if I move it elsewhere then unregistered users won't be able to see this...
