    Um.. sorry if you mean more than you said, but where did you cut down
    the TCP MTU? If you did it on your routers, then you are creating
    or at least complementing the problem.

    The only way to make smaller MTUs work is to alter the MTU on both
    the origin and destination systems. Altering the MTU anywhere along
    the path only breaks things.
