[Etherboot-developers] TFTP speed

[James N. <jn...@me...>]

Hi. Not sure if this is the correct place of this post, forgive me if it is
not.    It seems that the TFTP speed downloading a kernel from an Etherboot
workstation using a standard 33.6 modem is very slow.  I know that 33.6kbps
is nothing like 10 or 100-base-T, but we can see the send/recv LEDs blink
very slowing, which makes us think that maybe there is some sort of sleep
state in place.   The modems send/recv LEDs are on constantly after the
kernel is loaded and booted up and the application is running.   Is there
some sort of built in sleeps or maybe timeouts with TFTP-SERVER.0.17-9.RPM?
Server is RedHat 7.2.      Would it be worth trying other TFTP servers?

Thanks for any input,

James
