The log messages mean that the TCP layer in your computer decided
that the connection was no longer viable and that no further
communication was possible.  Unfortunately, the reason cannot be
known.  I could be, for example, that the physical communications
link between the US and Portugal was sufficiently congested that
communication was impossible.  Executing the "traceroute" program
might indicate this.

The downstream LDM process will automatically attempt to reconnect
and receive data-products from where it stopped.

The large latencies that you are experiencing are likely due to
congestion on the physical link.  Again, the "traceroute" program
might illuminate this.  If congestion is the cause, then you should
consider reducing the amount of data that you request or requesting
the data from another LDM in Portugal that also receives the data.
According to <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idd/rtstats/siteindex.php>,
there are at least 5 active LDM-s in Portugal.

> The reinitialization of LDM doesn't seem to resolve the problem.
> Can you please provide me some hints on how to solve this problem?
