@dtkeith002 said in Acer Aspire A515-55 Connection Timed Out:

Does FOG offer the ability to listen on multiple interfaces / ips at the same time? I haven’t dug into the config files to see. If so I can try a direct bridge to the server VM and bypass the network completely.

Don’t think it’s worth going down that route. Testing on the same switch as the server should be enough to rule out most of the network related stuff.

From the picture we see that it seems to be able to fully download the kernel (bzImage) file but times out on the initrd (init.xz). I would setup a mirror port on the switch and capture traffic on both ends - client port (using a notebook with Wireshark on the mirror port) and directly on the FOG server (e.g. using tcpdump). Use capture filters to restrict traffic to a particular MAC address (ether host aa:bb:cc:11:22:33). Please upload the PCAPs to a file share and post links here.

If that doesn’t give us enough insights we might compile debug enabled iPXE binaries to analyze the TCP traffic - though this will a tough job!

Have you tried using ipxe.efi yet?
