Hi J65nko,

To confirm the NFS server is in the same network (lan) as the Thin clients (192.168.1.0). The issue (I think) is when the wireless gateway drops out and there is no DNS then the NFS server starts going slow.

I just did a tcpdump as you suggested and figured out the issue. Thanks for your help.

The problem was that the dhcp was giving the hosts a hostname and they must've been using this hostname in their nfs requests. Simply adding the hostnames of the thin clients to /etc/hosts on the server solved this problem.

Cheers,

Jay
