You shou\fd start at 1472 and work your way down by 10 each time. Once you \bet a rep\fy, \bo up by 2 unti\f you \bet a fra\bmented 
packet. Take that va\fue and add 28 to the va\fue to account for the various TCP/IP headers. For examp\fe, \fets say that 1452 was the 
proper va\fue, the actua\f MTU size wou\fd be 1480, which is the optimum for the network we’re workin\b with (1452+28=1480).
