Using the ping tests from above, a ping of 1468 octets (i.e. a payloadpacket size of 1496) now works
but a ping of 1469 octets (payloadpacket size of 1497) doesn't. On further testing, one can receive
1500 octet packets, but can only send 1496 octet packets - i.e. MRU=1500, MTU=1496.
This is despite the bridging modem used for the tests not claiming to support an MTU > 1500 octets
