Hello i getting this in my log from my vpn

DD-WRT daemon.warn dnsmasq[1788]: reducing DNS packet size for nameserver 103.86.99.100 to 1280

Is it possible to change the dns packetsize to 1280?

And where?

Pretty sure this is about MTU. According to the Wiki:

"MTU is the Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for Internet transmission. Keep the default setting, Auto, to have the router select the best MTU for your Internet connection. To specify a MTU size, select Manual, and enter the value desired (default is 1400). You should leave this value in the 1200 to 1500 range."

To answer your question, you can change it from Setup > Basic setup > Optional Settings > MTU.

Additional Dnsmasq Options
