Description
Hi,
we use a powershell script to download *.gz files from a server. The server is hired on domainfactory.
The tar file size is~ 1GB. I start the download with Get-SCPFile. After ~ 236MB the download stuck. I waited 3, 10, 25 minutes - nothing happens.
We are use Version 2.2 on our systems. I tried it under windows 7 and windows 10 - same issue.
I started the download with -verbose -debug. But the output of this was not helpfully.
How can i get informations, why the download hangs on 236MB?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the PowerShell script's Get-SCPFile download for a roughly 1GB .gz file against the reported server conditions, using the verbose and debug options already mentioned. Investigate why the transfer stops near 236MB; the work is done when the cause is identified and the download completes reliably.
