i was tried to download a big zip file about 2.2GB. however, when the file is about 96% completed, it sudden disconnect and cannot resume. WHY?
how can i continue the download?

(i'm sure the zip file is ok, no virus and no crc errors)

The most likly explanation is that the dirve you are saving to is formatted with a FAT filesystem that does not support files larger than 2GB.

That would be correct, especially if there are still sources available to download from, but none start after a while. Would have never though of that zaphodiv.
