Puzzling MTU settings

Have Orbi RBK353 set up.
In Orbi set up, set MTU via WAN setup to 1492 and applied. All seems to be fine.
However if I check in CMD prompt : netsh interface ipv4 show subinterfaces
I get MTU as 1500 for Ethernet and WiFi. Not sure why.
Also, in Orbi, can I set different MTU values for WiFi and Ethernet?
Solved! Go to Solution.

No. MTU values are not needing any adjustments on the LAN side.

Re: Puzzling MTU settings
MTU on Orbi is for the WAN side only. Check with your ISP to see what MTU value is needed if it's required by the ISP.

Re: Puzzling MTU settings
Thank you. So, is there a way to set the WiFi MTU in Orbi (via Command prompt say)?

See page 39 of the user manual: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RBK352/RBK352_RBK353_UM_EN.pdf
No command prompt needed.
