    ___________________________

    What happens 3 Pc's have Ethernet connection, to a Distributed computing project, Upload & download, occurs regularly.
    ___________________________

    Occasionally (15 -50%) of the time GPU's will not get a new assignment (download), & remain idle. Rebooting always, put's the GPU's back to work.

    ___________________________

    So Far:

    One re-occurring GPU which failed . Switch from Ethernet to WIFI 3days no gpu fail
    Replaced switch old netgear to linksys, no help

    If all other programs work fine, then it is likely the DC software at fault. You should probably as on their support site.

    I can read the DC log & know exactly when the download failed. I've taken one of the DC machines, off ehternet & switched to WIFI, to see if i can replicate the failed dl. Can lost packets cause a dl fail? How do you measure or check this?

    DC software designed to see GPU & take advantage of it. After upload, the machine prepares to get new project, but dl fails. The GPU sits Idle doing nothing, until discovered, then re-boot, the awaiting dl succeeds, & DC computing continues
