PharmDawgg Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I know this question does not have to do with MTU but I am on Comcast and they do provide IPv6 capabilities. Do you recommend using it or sticking with IPv4 only? Since everyone is saying disable it I have and really can't see a difference. Also I have my MTU set to 1480.

RabX2 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I think the negative effects of being too high and defragging out weigh the negatives of being to low. Some host wont be the highest mtu. Might as well find the one size fits most setting and go with it. Im curious as to what percentage of us actually have an optimal setting of 1472 or above to the first router outside our homes. Again im no expert, best solution in my thinking is for iian to program a feature to match host mtu on the fly. That way your optimized to host and you go together like peas and carrots. My thoughts could be way off but thats my limited understanding. Example. My optimal per standard test is 1500. If bucknas is my host, theres going to be some hiccups.

Good idea but doubt it could happen, for the MTU setting I think you need to reboot the router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A PURPLE COBRA Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Did you input this in to the mtu on your netduma and your isp modem router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabX2 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I keep reading more and more on mtu. Everything i read says for best performance of a pc network all systems should be the same mtu. For us that would mean for our mtu to match host. Impossible now unless iian can code it to match on the fly. If it is even beneficial Another thing is i havent been considering The additional 8 bytes for mpls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabX2 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Im still working it out. They didnt calculate it the same. The mpls is an additional load that can be added on when passing some routers. If you dont allow room for it, it might cause the fragmentation. https://blog.apnic.net/2014/12/15/ip-mtu-and-tcp-mss-missmatch-an-evil-for-network-performance/ I do not know how good the source is.

TheReelDeal Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I lowered my MTU to 1492 in my Ps4 and my Duma(Wan and Lan) , and I played blackops3 , only the first 2 or 3 games had awesome connection I felt like The Mark of J lol , every bullet hit, the aim assist was great , then after those games back to regular ol laggy games ,I wonder why? I will do more testing with MTU... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're chasing the mythical unicorn my friend.IMO unless your MTU is set to a ridiculous setting either way your gonna see the same results...some games good,some games bad.

kizvandutch Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Should my mtu be on the netduma and ps4 same or leave it automatic on my ps4? My mtu is 1472 with the test I have done. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretface Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I would leave it all on automatic I have had mine as low as 1384 for xbone and really I'm not sure it made a difference. Nothing seems to change anything. Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opa Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I have made an interesting find that when lowering your mtu in this game, even a marginal change goes a long way. I remember trying this back in the BLOPS II days with mixed results. However, when lowering my mtu from the default 1500 to the XBL minimum of 1384 it has been night and day. I thought it was a placebo effect, so I went ahead and pushed it back up to 1500. Same old nonsense getting oneshotted across map with guns I know have no business killing that fast from that range. So, I dropped it back down to 1384 and the problems once again subsided. Now, I don't want to make it seem like this is a cure all. You will still get occasional lag as their servers are overloaded and most likely not the highest quality in the first place. However, for someone like myself who rushes constantly, I can tell the difference. I went 21-0 my first game after changing it and 35-4 the second. Please look into this people as it may too help you. More importantly, and the reason I came here, Duma team, would you be able to provide insight as to why this is occurring. how do you switch the mtu on xbox one? Or change the mtu on the netduma?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 7, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 7, 2016 how do you switch the mtu on xbox one? Or change the mtu on the netduma? You can change it by doing advanced network settings on the xbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharmDawgg Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I'm sorry guys you can not change the MTU on the Xbox. You can only modify it on the router. Now the DNS can modified on the Xbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerosignal0 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 my $.02 is to leave your MTU settings to the automated algorithms. Given the efficiency of packet switched networks your MTU really isn't going to affect that much anyways out on the internet wire. If it is really helping that much in your experiences than maybe there is a problem on your internal network as others have suggested. If your hardwired, maybe a failing port? Another device in line between your xbox and the internet? solar flares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A7Legit Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 If any of you are canaries you may understand this post better but for BO3 I use 1407 + 28 = 1435 MTU which I manually placed in my Netduma's Settings > LAN & WAN. I did the same for PS4 but the XB1 doesn't need manual input... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
