ifconfig is fine.
but a "ping -s XXX -M do" with XXX > 548 (576 with the headers),
hasn't any answer,
although I can see much bigger packets when I dumping while browsing...

I mean, it worked for windows, not for Linux event if I set the mtu to 1500

I tried severals values on the 3G interface (500-1500), nothing worked,
the reason could be because I'm NATed/Proxyfied by my ISP...
I'm using a 10.x.x.x IP on a "point to point noarp multicast"  link

Well, happy new year!
and BTW, do you have an idea, why 3.4.0 backend is (really) slower
than the 3.3.0 (even in ADSL) to establish the display connection? ;)

Cheers!
