Versions should be fine. Your options matter though, so send the full command you're using.
Also try this:
1) Open one terminal window and run a ping at your remote machine and let it keep running
2) Open another term and run your sync. See if ping lags or delay issues start when the rsync issues start in both windows

I use this: ```shell rsync -rah --progress /path/on/source/ user@ip.of.local.server:/path/on/destination ``` I will try the ping next time I attempt this. There doesn't seem to be a definite time when the issues start though. It tries to copy the file over, and when it is done it continues to the next. If the first one didn't succeed, it will retry and if that also fails, it will say "ERROR verification failed - discarding update" (paraphrased) and continue to retry the next file if that also failed. I do see some fluctuations in the transfer speeds during transfer, which could indicate the times the connection is struggling.
