RUTX MTU on LTE interface

I'm using a RUTX09 and RUTX11 and i'm looking to configure them in bridge mode.

It seems that when enabling bridge mode, the RUTX is adjusting the MTU value for the LTE interface. NAT mode does not adjust the MTU.

This results in weird things that must be corrected on other devices (like a firewall) when configuring RUTX in bridge mode.

Can someone explain why MTU is changed from 1500 to 1460 when bridge mode is enabled?

Hello,

It could be that operator selects what MTU will be, can you please PM me with the troubleshoot file (System -> Administration -> Troubleshoot) when you set Bridge mode on RUTX11.

And could you please let us know what kind of issue does MTU changes aplly to your solution?

i'm not sure if i understand your question. I assume you're asking what issues i'm seeing when this MTU change occurs?

Because of the MTU change, i have TLS handshake problems (websites using https do not work, so pretty much the internet) when browsing the web on a clientdevice behind the firewall that gets the public IP bridged by the RUTX. I needed to lower the MTU/MSS-clamping setting on my firewall to be able to browse the internet properly.

I do not have these problems when using NAT mode.
