Your dialer MTU should be no higher than 1492. Right now it is at the
default of 1500.

Try changing the MTU on the host itself to 1300 or something. I changed my
MTU on my laptop to 1350 to solve problems when windowing was being ignored
by servers.

To do it on a windows machine follow these instructions

See if that solves the problem

Subject: Very Strange Problem

Hello all,

 I have run into an issue that I am having the hardest time trying to figure
out what it is. Here is what is happening:

I have a 2801 Router with and ASDL wic installed in it. There is currently
3 site to site VPN's configured, and basic routing, and PAT. What is
happening is every time a user behind this router tries to access the
internet (going to a site www.yahoo.com or facebook etc) it basically sits
there and just continues to load and take forever but never comes up, if I
go to www.google.com that has no images to load it comes up really quick
with no issue. Here is a kicker, if I try to load a web page on internal
site on the other side of the tunnel everything comes up as normal with no
problems, the issue is only when I try to access external websites from that
location. I am able to ping and telnet to port 80 with no problems. I
thought it was a fragmentation issue, so I changed MTU and MSS as low as
1200 and the problem still persists. Has anyone else seen this issue? I
found the issue on the internet but have not seen where anyone has come up
with a fix for it, so I thought I would see if anyone here may have seen
this issue and resolved?

The configuration is pretty basic (snippits)

F0/0 - Shutdown

 ppp pap sent-username xxxxxxxxxx password 0 xxxxxxxxx

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Dialer1

ip nat inside source route-map internet_nat interface Dialer1 overload

ADSL is used because that is the only option in the location in which this
router is located. Any ideas on where I should be looking is much
appreciated, the next step for me is to probably open a TAC case but wanted
to get others thoughts first..
