Hmm okay looks like I need to find out more about how this
darn thing boots. I have found that it is related to attempting
to cross intelligent switches. I found a cisco, an AT&T and
a cabletron that it will not work across.

what kind of boot request is being made? DHCP? (doubtful)
or perhaps rarp? Obviously something I normally configure
down. I plan to test defaults on each and find it, but after spending 30 min with the cisco, I've gotten nowhere and
its very frustrating. The manual is less than adequate for a
network attached device.

P.S. the remote ONLY works if actively connected to a server?
That seems rather silly.
