Yep, lower settings like 1492 solve certain packet loss issues but it's hit or miss if you solve anything. You can try lower settings and packets are not lost but have to be resent since MTU size is smaller. Older routers that had minimal hardware and would benefit from these tweaks but auto settings work fine in newer routers with more memory and faster CPUs.
My advice test but leave at default.
Thanks
You can simply use Command to see if you are experiencing packet loss.
You ping something like Google and it will tell you how many sent/received, how many were lost.
Run Command Prompt as administrator.
copy/paste "ping google.com -n 25"
This will give you your ping stats.
Mine shows no loss at MTU of 1510. My default was 1500.
