This ONLY applies if you're using the AOL 6.0 client to connect online on Win9x/ME systems.
To change your MTU to 1400, download DrTCP to your desktop from here.
Set your Dial-up Adapters MTU to 1438 from the Adapter Settings list. If you use ICS, then you will also need your MTU to 1438 under ICS MTU. If you also use a NIC, then set that to 1438 under Adapter Settings as well.
Click Save, Exit and reboot your PC. Run a tweaks test to confirm that your MTU is now 1400.
The reason behind the 1438 MTU value is that there is an awkward 38 byte overhead, which is deducted from the actual value your entered on your dial-up adapters.
In other words, 1438-38 = 1400 - Your actual MTU result.
