Do you know what kind of change this was supposed to be?  If you are 
running DSL with PPOE it might have been a registry tweak for windows to 
reduce the MTU.  On Centos you can just put MTU= in your ifcfg-eth? file 
with the value you want (I've seen 1492 suggested for this).  If it is a 
cablemodem it doesn't make much sense to need to do anything under windows.
