Please elaborate that.
So do take time describe what is happing.


It would allready help if was stated how many requests where seen.
( only one or several requests )


My advice is:
 suspend the PXE boot test

 boot a Linux live system   ( "Knoppix" )
 start in the live system a TFTP client
 get pxelinux.0
 or try to get /tftpboot/pxelinux.0
 keep meanwhile an eye on the logging of the TFTP server
 
 When you have "pxelinux", get pxelinux.cfg/default configuration file

 Celeberate that you have a working TFTP  ___SERVER___


 Resume PXE boot test
 pay attention the setup of the DHCP-server, because it defines what to "tftp"


 Provide feedback  ( inline quoting preferred )
