wireless - be careful, check your MTU size ...

Just set up a wireless router. Fantastic! The trouble was: I could not get access to messenger. I decided to check www.msn.com . Could not connect either!

what was wrong? I thought ... probably an ISP issue, ... no! It is down to the router. You must check that you MTU size (WAN settings) is set to 1400.

It took me 2 hours to sort that out. hopefully this post will save you times if you try to get your own wireless network sorted.
