The router on your DSL provider's side is almost certainly at 1500 MTU, and even if that one isn't most Internet routers are, so there's no way you can just give yourself more bandwidth at will just by increasing your MSS and such. Besides, IIRC 1500 bytes is the limit for a regular ethernet frame any way, so you can't go over that without jumbo-frame support, which only exists for GigE, so far as I know (and that's only if you're switch supports it, and the receiving box supports it, and you're on a local connection--not a WAN).
