Anyone have any idea why psftp would stall when trying to upload a

All other machines with the same setup work fine, and in fact this one
was working fine until last friday and then all of the sudden it
started giving me this error message. I can ssh to the box and I can
sftp and browse and download, but anytime I try to upload anything
over 8k it stalls and gives me the Fatal Network error message. There
are no firewalls on the machine, I have no idea what could be causing
this.
This happens when some network along the routing path switches to/from
Jumbo Frames or other MTU change. Packets over a certain size get
rejected and if ICMP along the path is blocked the ICMP messages used to
negnotiate smaller packets don't work.
So get the path to unblock ICMP and change the network parameters to
always use smaller packets. Thus losing any throughput advantage of
Jumbo frames, sigh.
This is interesting, do I have to contact their ISP to get this
fixed? I somehow dread trying to work my way through AT&T's customer
support to get them to make these changes.
