Client is working now, and i've been able to allocate space and watch it reflected in my account.

However I've ran into a different issue. Whenever I download a file (so far tried only big files, might try a smaller one if i can), a blank node-webkit window opens, i'm prompted to save the file, and saving commences.

However, when I check the folder hours later, there is no file.

I suspect that this issue is caused by quick disconnects/reconnects my connection tends to suffer from.

Does Noobaa have any capacity for resuming a download? or at least saving a partial file?

I can also see the issue that you are describing when downloading from the client. The download itself starts, but it lacks progress reporting, reconnect handling, and completion notification. For small files it usually works well, but for big ones your guess about disconnections might be right. As a workaround you might want to download from your web browser.
