sorry for the long delay - happy new year btw ;)

i still believe your problem has to do with mss/mtu sizes. i am no
professional on that topic but i assume there are options to fix this
- either in your pppoe client (that your router is supposed to use) or
in your firewall config.

i remember myself trying to optimize mss/mtu sizes once. i also used a
value of 1452 and this raised problems like not completely loading web
pages. i'm from germany, all german websites loaded completely but
some from overseas stopped loading html/css/images occasionally.

that said, you might try removing the max-mss option? or try a value of 1492?

what (pppoe-)client software connects you to the internet?
