If a packet received from a communication terminal is larger in size than a maximum transmission unit used between a wireless base station and a gateway apparatus and also if it cannot be fragmented, an echo request packet of a size not larger than the maximum transmission unit is generated and transmitted to the gateway apparatus. Thereafter, if an echo reply packet corresponding to the echo request packet is received from the gateway apparatus, an ICMP data packet including the value of the maximum transmission unit is generated and transmitted to the communication terminal, ( Fig. 5 ) |
