I finally got my Gigaset back, so I can get back at installing OpenWRT
on it.  I have replaced the secondary bootloader, so I get the HTTP
server requesting the firmware image.  All is well.

Except that when I submit that firmware, the request never ends.
After soldering the serial line, I now see that the upload goes
*reeeeeaaaalllly* slow, repeating patterns of form:

214253 / 3145732
215699 / 3145732
.........................................................................................................................217145
 / 3145732
218591 / 3145732
220037 / 3145732
........................................................................................................................221483
 / 3145732

At this rate, it will take days before the firmware is uploaded.

Not sure what's going on: there always seem to be 3 packets sent
together, followed by a wait.  The first few packets get sent without
waiting, but once I get to around 200KB, the wait starts appearing.
It appears gradually, with an exponential pattern: first 3 blocks
followed by a single ".", then 3 blocks followed by "..", then 3 blocks
followed "...", then ".......", then ".............", ... until hitting
the limit seen above.

I tried to run a "ping" at the same tine, figuring it might disrupt the
wait, but to avail.  Any idea what might be going on, or how I can try
to fix it?
