as you can see in the above posted log the data packets coming from your
system get fragmented at 1472 bytes (which is quite common for PPPoE
setups). Read the section about MTU in the pppoe manpage, and be sure to
set an appropriate (= low) MTU value on your pppoe0 interface. If you've
got more than this system and your NetBSD box acts as a router, it might
be advisable to change the MTU value of your entire network, too.
