If you have to use an MTU setting, I set it to 1500. On my own, I just setup my radius so it doesn't send MTU at all and it works fine. Glad to hear you got it working.

Another (slight) possibility - do a "mon rad" and look at the response from your radius server. See if there's anything unusual being set by the radius server. Is your radius server sending back an MTU setting? Usually, if you're radius is sending back an MTU setting it will mess up most everything rather than just a few web sites. But it's a possibility.

Thanks much for the suggestion Joel, it was an MTU setting. There was a default MTU setting of 576 in my freeradius config, been there for years probably. Changed it to 1500 and got through to those websites right away. Is there a "recommended" MTU setting that my radius server should be pushing out, or should I not bother setting an MTU attribute at all? Funniest part was I came to the same conclusion and was coming on to post my results when your message came in. Tested with my old WinME notebook and it worked fine and then tested with my XP notebook no-go and MTU snapped into my mind. Most of our customers are older folks with older PC's... 95, 98... that's probably why we have not seen any issues. Every one of the problem clients are on XP though. The puzzling part is why this cropped up at virtually the same time on different websites for all of these folks. Cheers,
