When the Linksys routers first came out I did some tests and found that 
PPPOE, VPN, and HTTPS caused the packet header to increase enough that the 
MTU had to be changed to compensate. Later versions on the Linksys firmware 
took care of this automatically. The MTU for the worst case scenario was 
1438. Something would appear to be wrong in Whoville if 768 is required.
