Tech: Setting Airport MTU on Startup in Tiger
Some ISPs require your computer to have specific MTUs set to owrk properly. A common MTU setting for PPPoE DSL customers is 1492.Browse to the following directory:
/System/Library/SystemConfiguration/Kicker.bundle/Contents/Resources
Use your favorite text editor to edit the file:
enable-network
Add this line before the 'exit' line:
ifconfig en1 mtu 1492
Now the Airport card's MTU will be set to 1492 when the system boots.

Hello
I managed to navigate to the right file in OS X 10.4 but don't know where to insert the extra line. Could you help by telling me where to insert the extra command?
Many thanks
