This is expected. curl has no knowledge of where to restart, as you have not
told it enough clues to figure that out. Then it starts from zero.

Did you really use this command line? Then I'm not surprised this doesn't work
either. Try something like this instead:

 curl -C - -o test.zip http://192.168.2.247:80/curlTest.zip

... and it has a bigger chance of actually working.

Your command line was bad.
