Downloading & Uploading delays and failures

[DaveDB]

During the last few weeks I have experienced delays in connecting & downloading work units and also in returning completed units. At present I have 2 pcs with 3 completed units waiting on each - I do not want to leave PCs running waiting for work or losing completed units. Why the delays??

There are lots of reports and threads about the network situation at Stanford...

Restart the clients to try to get new work; they try more often at startup.

It has been two days now and I keep stopping and restarting this machine but can not get my completed units to upload.
So, how long do we wait before we give up. I am new here and just started, our team is having fun competing but I am having NO joy.
