Milver,

This is not a Freeradius issue (Freeradius only sends to the NAS what is set in the 
attribute)and as such should be taken elsewhere.

Having said that....

There was a great deal of discussion around 6 years ago on the "best" setting for 
dialup users in relation to MTU size and dialup modem capabilities (handling 
fragmentation - retrains and retransmission of garble packets and the like).  From 
what I remember the number 576 for the MTU settings for connections up to 56Kbit/Sec 
comes to mind as the better compromise for different effects that can occur in dialup 
modem transmissions - best throughput for differing conditions... Of course for 
Broadband/DSL connections this number is different).

Of course all of this is from memory - you may want to do a Google Search for "MTU 
Settings for Dialup Access" or some such search criteria to see if you can find some 
of the info I remember....
