MTU not fragmented improved gameplay latency more stable in game

[Boldshoter30]

I noticed a improvement with latency and not rubber banding being shot around corners I have tested MW2 on several occasions other servers, with the MTU set at 1472 on the R2, my packets were fragmented at 1500 so I went with 1472, and left it alone, you can test your MTU from this link to download  TCP Optimizer :  https://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php , look for the least fragmented mtu size and set according in your router of choice, but lower don't mean better unless instructed by TCP optimizer make sure you run it as administrator on your desktop computer to test, I have noticed as well its not a placebo, it works and has been proven by hundreds of people to help with latency, and packet loss, I tested a server thousands of miles away which I would lag bad on which hit reg was raised, but seemed more stable in game, didn't die in BS ways, its not a solve all fix all, or will fit everyone's isp internet setup, so test according, some speculate that MTU does little to nothing, which also been proven to help, may not be consistent, based on your bufferbloat, incorrect QOS, running wifi for gaming console, or pc, or other unknown issues packet loss on ISP side, to many devices on network,

you can check google on how to find it with a Mac command prompt tool I forget what its called, normally 1472 MTU, is good for FPS, Call of duty, Halo, Fortnite games, make sure you set the MTU in the routers WAN page and your preferred gaming console or pc all the same MTU 1472

after setting the MTU on a console make sure to do a Console speed test to apply the MTU or restart the console, after setting the MTU on the router it doesn't require a reboot, just apply save settings

Yes, you can test on mac using command

ping www.google.com -f -l 1492

drop 28 each time or until it no longer shows packet fragmented.

The down side to this I noticed when adjusting the MTU it affects other device connected the router, for instance the internet speed becomes sluggish videos buffers, opening websites takes longer than it should to load up etc
