Well I've been bashing away at this rsync problem I've had and have finally found the cause, if not the cure.
I was trying to to a big rsync upload of data from my home Linux box to a remote system, a total of 35Mb or so and the rsync was simply hanging after a fairly short while, usually on big files.
It turns out that my router loses sync when doing the upload, it looks like it can't cope when saturated in the upload direction. It's a Zyxel 660H, I've fired off a report to their support people but I'm not sure how much good that's going to do.
Fascinating. Do you know what chipset it uses? I wonder if it is a hardware limitation or something in the router SW?
