Dear Jenn, I've forward the email to IT in my institute. I also added TCP Port 33001 as a special connection in the Windows firewall (inbound, UDP 33001 was added before). IT told me that the two ports shall be able to access remote servers. However, I tried again, the downloading is still not working. I'll need to download data at ~10 GB size, and ~10-30TB. I can try to download the smaller size data at home, but this won't work for the massive data.
May I know if we shall guarantee: 1) my machine's TCP 33001 and UDP 33001 be able to access your Aspera server and 2) HCP Aspera server will be able to access the two ports of my machine too? I'm not very sure if the two are different things. Thank you very much!

If you are downloading from behind an institutional firewall, please speak with your IT people to ensure that Port 33001 is open to both TCP and UDP traffic. You also might try downloading at home where you might not have as many firewalls set up. Let us know if you still have issues.

However, even if online test tool from IBM Aspera says that my system status is all OK (OS, ROWSER, connect, TCP and UDP ports), I still cannot download data. For example, if I click the link to download 1003 Subjects, recon r177 + r227, PTN Release<https://db.humanconnectome.org/app/action/ChooseDownloadResources?project=HCP_Resources&resource=GroupAvg&filePath=HCP1200_Parcellation_Timeseries_Netmats.zip> (13GB), Aspera never manages to connect successfully, but gives 'Error: Error establishing HTTP connection (check HTTP port and firewall)'. I have closed windows firewalls, uninstalled anti-virus softwares, and checked on IBM Aspera websites. Then used their online tool to test my system, but it give all OK reports as described above. In AWS, I can only see files organised subject by subject, but not these organised data packages. So still want to use Aspera. May I know if there are any solutions to this? Thank you very much!
