Airport Utility on iMac with Jumbo Frames can't read Airport configuration
iMac--Netgear--Airport--Cable Modem
The iMac has jumbo frames enabled (MTU=9000) and can communicate fine to the Internet and other devices on my local LAN (including a Netgear NAS box also with Jumbo frames enabled).
Airport Utility on the iMac starts and discovers my 3 Airports (1 extreme + 2 express) but if I double click on one of them to configure it, the window says "Reading the AirPort Extreme configuration..." and hangs there never bringing up the setup screen. Printer jobs to the shared USB printer that worked before Jumbo Frames were enabled on the iMac are also failing. The same happens for the 2 Airport Express as well although I can still steam Airtunes music to them.
Any ideas what might be wrong ? Do the airports have problems negotiating with jumbo frame enabled Macs ?
My wireless MBA with std MTU can still communicate fine with the Airports.
Thanks,
E
