MTU The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) setting specifies
the largest protocol data unit (in bytes) permitted for
network transmission. Generally, a larger MTU means
greater efficiency. However, a larger packet may cause
delays for other traffic and is more likely to become
corrupted. In most cases, you should keep the default
setting, Auto, to allow the ATA to choose the appropriate
MTU. To specify the MTU, select Manual, and then enter
the number of bytes.
