Change the MTU Size
The maximum transmission unit (MTU) is the largest data packet a network device transmits. 
When one network device communicates across the Internet with another, the data packets 
travel through many devices along the way. If a device in the data path uses a lower MTU 
setting than the other devices, the data packets must be split or “fragmented” to 
accommodate the device with the smallest MTU....

If you suspect an MTU problem, a common solution is to change the MTU to\
 1400. If you are 
willing to experiment, you can gradually reduce the MTU from the maximum\
 value of 1500 
until the problem goes away

. The following table describes common MTU sizes and 
applications.
