Hmm, IIRC, it depends on whether you have configured your Ethernet card on the MP3000 to be DIX or IEEE 802.2 compliant - one MTU was then 1500, the other 1492 (though I don't remember which MTU where...). The Ethernet card can be configured on the OS/2 SE with mpts; the parameter is D for DIX or I for IEEE 802.2.

I suspect its something else. 1500 is the ethernet MTU, and even if there was a mismatch with another LAN things ought to work properly due to the way TCP/IP does mtu discovery between networks. Your 'weird it works with 1492' is the kind of thing which makes the network administrators nervous. Its a bit like "The brakes are a bit odd but I use the handbrake when driving instead" 8)
