N00b here trying to understand why certain CDN's such as Cloudfare have issues where my MTU is low. For instance if I am using pptp and the MTU is at 1300 it wont work. If I increase to 1478 it may or may not work.PMTUD has a lot of trouble working reliability when the destination of the PTB is a stateless load-balancer.
