This sounds personal, not technical.
Peter said to use tftp over an isdn connection, you are recommending
analog dial-up, which is sure to be slower! Much slower! The uplink with
a v.90 modem (i.e., if the transmitting modem is connected to an analog
line) is limited to about 32 kb/s, compared to 128kb/s with isdn ....
and its all digital (i.e., very low error rate).
I've used tftp over the wide area and it works great. Well, the
situation was a little different, these were backbone routers at the ISP
where I was working and our slowest connections were OC3. :-)
However, if the remote staff can't even do simple things, its a good
idea to have a modem on an aux port for access if you screw up and you
loose connectivity.
