Default Changing the MTU Setting in the DisplayLink ethernet driver

I have an ethernet camera that I would like to connect to my PC through a DisplayLink docking station (the Dell D3100). The camera is a high-res, high frame rate camera that suggests a dedicated ethernet port with Jumbo Packet (MTU 9000KB) enabled. Unfortunately, my DisplayLink dock doesn't seem to provide a way to configure MTU. It appears to be locked at 1500KB. With this MTU, the camera works, but drops frames and generally has trouble staying connected.

I opened the network adapter properties in Windows, clicked "Configure", then the "Advanced" tab where this setting is usually found. I saw this screen:



No jumbo packet or MTU option in the list. In fact, this list is incredibly sparse compared to a normal network adapter.

Is there any way to set the MTU anyway? Some kind of registry key or secret setting? Any plans to add jumbo packet support?
