          @mosssupply UDP packets destined to the internet that are larger than the MTU on your WAN interface will be dropped by the router I think

            @meph ah that's unfortunate, the gateway does say "this is a bad idea" in large red all caps text

              @meph @mosssupply ICMP should return a message to the originating client if the router received a UDP DF packet that is too big

              this is why you don't block *all* ICMP 🙂

                @arrjay @mosssupply yeah for sure. I personally try to avoid routing between different MTU segments if I can avoid it. I've dealt with enough bullshit from misconfigured routers on ISPs that require PPPoE
