I wrote a PHP script that creates a webpage with an adjustable output size:
<? for ($a=0;$a<$size;$a++) echo "X"; ?>

When I put it on a server in the lan, everything works fine with every size of 
page.
But when I put it on my webspace far away in the internet, the connection 
crashes with pages bigger than 950 bytes plus http header. The reason is 
simple: my cheap router can not split lage packages.

All my computers have a MTU size of 1500 bytes without any adjustment, but only 
this one has 1320 after startup. I changed it.
sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 1500.
And now everything works fine, I can browse the internet and do everything else 
I want to.

Please, fix it. I needed hours to find this out.
