Thank you Samer, we use http download for all our platforms in place of tftp. On our network the speed is more than x10 times faster comparing to tftp download speed. > > What is surprising is the time it is taking for the patches to be reviewed > and > integrated.

We are waiting for NetworkPkg reviewers to approve/or comment the patchset. The time can be affected by lockdowns due to pandemic, I understand.
