VMWare Client slow http download
Hi

Hope fully someone can help. We currently have issues downloading winpe.wim from our RIS server the VMWare client uses the vmxnet3 network adapter. The client boots into iPXE but the download of winpe.wim takes about 1.5 minutes to download the 170mb file.

I have completed a wireshark trace which shows a large number of duplicate ACKs, retransmissions and TCP Out-of-order messages, which i am sure that this is causing the slowness on the download. I was wondering if anyone else had seen this issue.

We are running the latest version of iPxe downloaded from github (although on bootup on the client it lists the version as 1.0.0+.

I would upload the capture but unfortuantely our firewall blocks attachments.

Thanks

Simon
