The MaxMTU is limited both by your Registry setting and the routers on the line.

You have to set your end to 1500 first, then test. When you get the largest number, add 28 to it and that should be your MaxMTU.

If you don't add 28 ( for headers ) and set your MTU to whatever the largest ICMP packet was, you will get a result 28 less each time you reboot.
