Sure enough Perry,

When I ping (across the ppp link) with a total packet size of 1500 bytes I
get 45% loss!
When I ping (across the ppp link) with a total packet size of 296 bytes I
get 4% loss.

Should I keep reducing until I get no loss and set my mtu/mru to that or
does this indicate an improper, but correctable connection?

Thanks :-)
