Aol Adsl
 

I am helping a friend (via msn/phone) get his internet working.

He has AOL ADSL, via ethernet.
His router is all setup, and reserving him an IP via DHCP.

In Windows he used to have to change his MTU to 1400 in order for the Internet to work.

I can't find any info on AOL DSL / Changing MTU in Linux / Ubuntu.

I told him to sudo ifconfig eth1 mtu 1400, which I saw on google;
It didn't return any errors, just went to the below line.
I don't know if there is any commands before/after this - or how to restart the network.
All I know is this command didn't get the Internet working.

Any and all help is highly appreciated.

Thank you
