Yes, this actually still a problem in 12.04. Not sure why upstream
closed this.

Title:
wrong mtu value on dsl connection
Status in NetworkManager:
Expired
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
i am using pppoe connection for internet. however, i cant visit some
sites and i cannot use pidgin for msn on 9.04 due to wrong mtu value
for ppp0. network manager sets 1492 as mtu value for dsl connections.
if i use pppoeconf instead of network manager to set my connection, it
gives 1488 and everything works as expected. i am now manually setting
mtu with ifconfig ppp0 mtu 1488 everytime a make a connection.
and also trying to set the mtu value for my dsl connection with the
gui of network-manager does not work, and it gives 1492 all time.
this was not a problem with 8.10, and i am not the only person
affected on my network.
