Hi all,
can get download started with wget, but sure enough my phone company managed
to disconnect me. wget will not restart from where it was disconnected, 
but starts a fresh
download.  gwget the same, it puts up "error. when resuming download.

The partial file in my Home Folder has remained the same, still  
2,154,496 ,  restart has downloaded 1,236,992  so don't know where it 
has gone, isn't starting a new file. As you can see from estimated 
download times, could be very old and grey before it finally completes 
without being able to "resume" :-)

Many thanks for all the help,
Take Care
