Packets are not moving as they should be. I compared it against pinging the client from my Ubuntu box

Try pinging gPXE from the server, as before, in order to generate some traffic from the server to gPXE. Leave wireshark running on the server, so that you can see the packets being transmitted. Run "ifstat" repeatedly on the client and watch to see if the RX packet counter increments at roughly the same time/rate as the packets are transmitted from the server. It's a crude method, but on a non-busy network it allows you to determine whether or not the packets are reaching gPXE without having to use any specific DEBUG= options. Michael
