Still have not received any feedback from this post. I am still having this issue and it is COSTING me more time that it is saving me because of the long times (up to 30 seconds) between uploads.
Anyone have any ideas if I can change some settings to make this connect faster? here is my json file. I have tried KEEPALIVE value but that seems to have no effect.
