changing to a new ISP; its the ping / latency that matters

 

change MTU in a fritzbox

 

Manually adjusting the MTU size for DSL connections

The FRITZ!Box does not offer the possibility to adjust the MTU size manually. This is also not necessary because the FRITZ!Box supports MSS clamping (Maximum Segment Size) that automatically adjusts the size of the data packets to the smaller MTU of the interconnected networks. This means that there will be no performance degradation due to the fragmenting or discarding of data packets.

Note:The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) indicates the maximum size of user data that can be transmitted in a single data packet. The maximum MTU is 1492 bytes for DSL connections established via PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet). The internet service provider can reduce the MTU by using additional protocols.

difference between sedation and anesthesia --- chatGPT

 Sedation and anesthesia are both medical techniques used to help patients manage pain and anxiety during medical procedures. However, they are different in terms of their level of effect on the patient.


Sedation involves the use of medication to relax a patient and reduce anxiety. The patient is still able to breathe on their own and respond to verbal cues, but they may feel drowsy and have limited memory of the procedure. Sedation can range from mild to moderate and is often used for minor procedures, such as dental work or endoscopies.


Anesthesia, on the other hand, involves the use of medication to put the patient into a controlled state of unconsciousness, so they don't feel pain or remember the procedure. During anesthesia, the patient is completely unaware of what is happening and unable to respond to verbal cues. Anesthesia can range from a light sedation to deep sedation, and it is often used for more invasive procedures, such as surgery.


In summary, sedation is a milder form of medication used to relax and reduce anxiety, while anesthesia is a deeper state of medication-induced unconsciousness used to eliminate pain and awareness during medical procedures.

difference between sedation and anesthesia

 With minimal and moderate sedation you feel drowsy, comfortable, sleepy and relaxed, but you remain conscious throughout the procedure. With general anaesthesia you are completely unresponsive and unconscious during the procedure. Deep sedation is between the two.
