Changing MTU on Windows 8












0















have tried several times to change the mtu on my windows 8 hp laptop, have used the method shown here-
http://www.richard-slater.co.uk/archives/2009/10/23/change-your-mtu-under-vista-windows-7-or-windows-8/
But in command prompt it says 'the filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect'



My issue is connecting my xbox to a wireless and the only error message is shows is an MTU error.



Thanks all!

    If your Xbox is showing an MTU error, then you will need to change the MTU on the Xbox. I don't know if that's possible. The last time I had a non-PC device fail with an MTU error, it was impossible to fix. Perhaps you will need to use ethernet.

That's because it's not "Wireless Network Connection" for the type of connection it may be "Wi-Fi". However the MTU will most likely reset after restarting your computer for unknown reasons.
