If that is what the ISP is using then you can leave it as 1492 to match the ISP router, just wanted to double check the figure was correct as it can cause issues otherwise.

(From the tests we did, we can assume that 1464 bytes is the largest unfragmented packet size. The MTU size would be 1492, made up from 1464 payload and 28 ICMP/IP Headers and payload information.)
i checked now from letmecheck.it and you see the result is 1492 .
so now i change mtu on ISP router and xr500 to 1492 ?
- Netduma-FraserApr 30, 2020NetDuma PartnerIf it's already set on the ISP router then you can change it on the XR but there really isn't a need, it won't give you any benefits really.

i rest isp router and now is fine ,,,
but im not change any thing in wan isp router i set all default settings only im add xr500 dmz ... so its normal ??
- Netduma-FraserMay 02, 2020NetDuma PartnerYes that is fine, if you have other devices connected to it then I would recommend also disabling the WiFi so you force all devices to connect to the XR. Otherwise just DMZ is fine.
