Package: pppoeconf
Version: 1.1-0.1
Severity: minor

From what I can tell, MSS clamping is only needed for packets
leaving a the system through a PPPoE tunnel. If I select to clamp
the MSS for a connection in pppoeconf, /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/0clampmss is
put in place, which causes *all* packets to be clamped to the MSS. 

Please use the -o option to iptables to restrict the rule to packets
leaving the PPPoE interface.

Also, please remove the rule again when the interface is brought
down.
