I am pretty sure there's something wrong with some folks' networking setups 
but I'm not sure what it is.

The timeouts on the TFTP server are very generous, it uses a backoff algorithm 
and ends up as a few seconds.  This should be more than enough for a local 
network!

As a data point. I have seen this locally once when I mixed different types of 
switches together (100MB and Gigabit) and went away as soon as I moved back to 
a single speed network.
