I almost sure that it will and I don’t see (yet) how can it help solving problem.
I know that physical network is relatively fine at my location and with exactly the same settings node was getting records in previous testnet.
Do you mean this line?

Well, if it does connect, we know that. If you are consistently unable to start a node that joins, that tells us something else… So we can dig in there.
Yup, that’s the one. 
It created 64 log files today each about 1.4 to 2MB in size … where do you want’em!?
Just one from a failing run should be fine thanks
Where though? I can’t attach it here - the forum software doesn’t allow it.
More oops

You should be able to zip it and send it, I think.
Aha! Thanks for that tip.

Getting some electrical work done today and the power went off a couple of times. I had a 362Mb atttepted upload running that got interrupted. WHen I try again, it did not attempt to charge me twice

For a minute or two I was getting much better network response , not great but better…
Actually, you’re hittong on a potential issue we have with repeat uploads.
No payment needed for 710 records.
If payment was insufficient for some nodes, we may not hit quorum. And as you see here, a future upload attempt will not (currently) retry to pay!
Which means you’ll never get your data up right now.
So we’re working on a few fixes there. Hopefully we can get a new client out to test against this network. (If we have a good looking node-fix for these 0 record nodes, we’ll maybe just start fresh).
OK - should I stop that job or let it continue and grab the logs?
I will kick off another fresh upload anyway.
EDIT: No I won’t – power going off while the datacentre err err garage gets hooked up
That explains my problems above; I started uploading early when price was 2 tokens.
Can look for the client logs if needed
I was wrong.
Second node shows the same behaviour as first one - it still got no records.

However, I don’t know what conclusions can be made from this information.
(I did not figured out yet how to launch several nodes at the same time in Windows service mode, so I’m not planning to launch more nodes at this moment)
I have continued testing, in general everything is fine 
Received without problems, maybe a bit slow

with more time I will start a node
I’m not having much luck with this testnet…

Always look on the bright side… I got two more chunks on the last try.
Well, maybe by the third time you’ll get the rest down. 
have you also had problems with the other files to download ?
Sadly no - the third attempt failed as well

The only succesful files I downloaded was @TylerAbeoJordan .s FatherJack and a few trivial uploads of my own.
Anything over ~1MB has failed IIRC.
@aatonnomicc - stick up BegBlag if you can, please, thats ~15Mb
BTW has anyone downloaded salma.mp4 successfully?
EDIT: Its getting worse with each attempt - only got 78/89 on the last attempt.

That’s what I’m asking myself ?
Yes, I just finished downloading salma.mp4:
