I sent an email to Westnet, my ISP, who within 10 minutes called me

on the NetComm modem/router. On the Setup page and PPPoE setup I
needed to
enable 'Enforce MTU'. Once this done I could access my .mac, and
what's more
Virex could also access the eUpdate server.
Problem solved! You would think. However for some reason I just
cannot save
this setting to the modem. Clicking the apply button simply
resulted in a
blank page on the browser, and if I switched off the modem, this
particular
setting was not saved and had to be reset prior to checking my mail.
It looks like the browser could not, for reason unknown to me, get
the modem
to save this particular setting. I tried this with not only Safari,
but also
FireFox with the same negative result.
Currently I am left with two options:
- Leave the modem on permanently. Which I do not particularly want
to do
seeing it is a WiFi one
- Reset the modem just prior to checking my .mac account
Wonder if anyone with some knowledge of NetComm NB5Plus4W can
provide some
suggestions.
Many thanks again,
Philippe
Hi Philippe,
You have probably read this already.
1.Changing MTU / Browsing issues
If you have issues browsing certain sites and able to browse others,
please try changing the MTU size. You can do this by following the
document attached.
This only effects the NB5Plus4 and NB5Plus4W along with certain ISP's.

2. Wireless changes does not take affect
When you have made a wireless change, remember to reset the Access
Point to activate the changes.
Go to Tools > System Commands and Restart Access Point
