Once we get the calculation correct, I would vote for the default being "auto" (that is, the ingress and egress strings would be pre-configure to "auto"). It would be the right thing for virtually anyone, but people could change it in the name of research. While I'm lobbying, I would still like to see the second item in the Link Layer choices be "Ethernet with overhead" (instead of simply "Ethernet') Doing this makes it easier to explain: "None" means none. CeroWrt does not make any per-packet adjustments at all. "Ethernet with overhead" means that CeroWrt assumes that each packet has an additional overhead of N bytes that needs to be taken into account. "ATM: ..." means that CeroWrt accounts for the incredibly arcane (stupid?) vagaries of the ATM 48-in-53 byte framing. Thanks.
