The PXE server serves a complete linux chroot via NFS. For this you  
need quite some speed on the network, otherwise the thin client  
machine behaves slow.

Also PXE is served via DHCP. DHCP is only something you have on local  
networks.

It is possible to work around both issues with a tool called iPXE, but  
I have never tried that.
