Hey everyone,
I am testing out new 2.5Gbit/s links.
I am using RT-AX86U with latest merlin and jumbo frames are enabled, however firmware does not specify how big are jumbo frames, are they 9k ? or 16k ?
USB dongle from ASUS i am using is ASUS usb-c2500, which supports 16k jumbo frames:
Asus USB-C2500 also supports 16k jumbo frames in linux:
ASUS usb-c2500:
RT-AX86U uses:
If i check with ifconfig all interfaces are 1500 bytes, no sign of 9000 bytes:
I have enabled jumbo frames in UI:
Does anyone know if merlin caps jumbo frames to max 9k or can we get more than 9k ?
Thanks.

I have enabled jumbo frames in UI:
Does anyone know if merlin caps jumbo frames to max 9k or can we get more than 9k ?
Thanks.
