Has anyone ever seen or heard of this type problem? I've had it happen occasionally over past years, but have never really tried to narrow it down...
Basically, uploading a .zip file using Leapftp. During the transfer, the download gets stopped (this particular instance the modem disconnects...ALWAYS! It happens in the same spot in the upload, the modem always disconnects, and no matter what, you cannot upload this file...very strange.
My personal theory is that the binary stream of characters through the modem accidentally make up the signal to tell the modem to shut off. My guess is that If I were to disassemble the file and rezip it in a different fashion, or with a different file, it would work just fine...but haven't tested this theory yet.
And no, still plenty of space left on the server...
Cheers!

If it is a very, very long file, it maybe that your ISP or your modem is
assuming no activity and automatically disconnects after a certain
amount of time. You may need to force some activity once and while
during the download to keep from getting disconnected (separate telnet
session running where you can input keystrokes to register activity).
