Hello
I have written a little documentation about "Schweizer ADSL mit PPPoA (und MTU 1500)" [1], currently it is only in German, but I hope it helps anyway.
[1] http://www.wenks.ch/fabian/ADSL-PPPoA.html
It is primarly written for the ZyXEL Prestige 642R modell, but should work also with similar ZyXEL routers, and can probably be adaptable for other router products.
Feedback is welcome.
bye Fabian
At least for your document to be interesting you should translate that in English ;)
Cu,
Nico

It is done now, thanks to some helpful people.
A tankyou goes to Chris Burri who contributed the English translation of my document (which I was changing all the time in the last few days ;).
Also a thankyou goes to Beat Rubischon who in the first place had this "bad" idea of changing my ADSL connection from PPPoE to PPPoA in hope to get the MTU up to 1500. The ADSL connection he had back then from IP+ was always running with a MTU of 1500, but he never got the configuration details as the router was managed by IP+. Today he also helped me with some HTML hints to give the webpage a much nicer look, check it out:

Hello
Again some more improvements went to the article.
In the chapter "Goal of this configuration change" [1] I have added some more informations why you would like to have a Path MTU of 1500 bytes, and why ICMP messages blocking is evil. ;)

The "ISP list of supported MTU for PPPoE/PPPoA" [2] got some additions/corrections. More informations about other ISPs are welcome.

In the chapter "MTU check prior to modifications" [3] I have added the "Path MTU Tester" [4] website to test the MTU to your host. Thanks goes to Beat Rubischon for building this website.
