I set the mtu on the WinXP box to the same as the Linux box. They are
both at 1500. The mtu on the pppoe connection is at 1492. When I try to
load aol.com through the lan connection, it dies without an error. If I
disable the lan connection and use dialup, it loads quickly. This is
using IE 6 in both cases. Of course there is no problem loading it on
the Linux box (router) :-)

Weird stuff,
