Dear Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently encountering challenges while attempting to download VIIRS ocean color geo files from the Level-1 and Level-2 browser using the wget command.

Here is a detailed overview of the issue:

Command Used: wget
URL of dataset:

Problem Description: The download process frequently halts, and despite multiple retry attempts, the issue persists.

I have attempted various solutions, including the use of the -c option for resuming downloads, but the interruptions persist. Your prompt assistance in resolving this matter and facilitating a successful download would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your attention to this issue.

Best Regards,
Durjoy

I can download that URL locally. There may be a network problem on your side. try adding the --verbose flag to your wget command
