[ale] TCP/IP weirdness.

[Joe]

As regards my previous spiel about my PPP/popclient/general network
not-work trouble:

I've experimented with the MTU/MRU options to pppd, and discovered
that if I back the MTU and MRU off to 512 bytes, things seem to work
a lot better. I still don't know what changed to make this necessary,
or whether this is the "right" fix, so any further input will be
appreciated.

Thanks again,

Joe (not the same joe, however)
