So, I'm running on 4 computers now, however, one of them is having trouble uploading DistrRTgen WU's while the other computers have no trouble at all. The computer that have trouble with DistrRTgen WU's also run other projects without any upload problem, so its very selective..

Quick log from computer with problems:

The WU's halt at 0.81% upload, or about 300kB, see image below



Since none of the other computers have trouble with DistrRTgen WU's, and the computer with trouble have no problems with other WU's, how should I proceed to fix this?

I would check at DistrRTgen first, to see if no one else has this problem. If there's no one else and it's only your computer, then the fault must be at your computer. Check network card (drivers) or the network cable (replace it).
