With windows this would be a bit dodgy though. Even if it is stored in the registry, I doubt it reflects runtime values. And thus you still don't know whether or not the MTU setting is accepted from the DHCP server.
I would suggest using tcpdump or some other sniffing tool to see how large the packets on the wire are.
