For this take a look at the BSWebClient class only (bottom of the file). This pull request is to make you aware of this issue. The issue may affect other SDK's as well.
We ran into a problem of file part upload timeouts when we ran an application that uploads files on a slow connection in Singapore. Other customers (Austria) were also experiencing a similar issue of not being able to upload. We set the chunk size to the minimum chunk size of 5mb - the original code assumes that this can be uploaded within 100 seconds.
To resolve, we hardcoded a bigger timeout -probably not the way to fix this. Maybe have a small upload job and measure the performance - then set the timeout value accordingly. This problem can be reproduced using an IP traffic shaping tool and limiting your upload speed to something slow - e.g. 200kbps.
