The Intel box is behind a NAT running on a Win98 box with ZoneAlarm running. The point of installing 4.7 is so that I can replace the 98 box as my gateway to my Verizon DSL connection. My installation fails when the program tries to access one of the ftp servers. When the time-out occurs I get an installation media error message. I know that my subnet on the NAT works because when I plug a 2000 machine into the gateway I can access the Internet. However, I had to lower the Max MTU settings in the registry to do it. I understand that PPPoE requires a lower MTU setting, but I'm not sure how to set MTU in the installation program. Can anyone help me with the problem?
