Impluse anywhere not letting DL's complete.

from Elemental Forums

Hello

 

I am over at my parents place in another province trying to download Elemental but after 24 hrs of trying it won't let me complete some of the files.

 

It keeps saying it cannot be saved because source file is unable to be read. Really getting annoying but the internet isn't shutting down and as far as I can tell the computer isn't going into sleep mode. Would be nice if it could be downloaded as a torrent file so if the download fails it doesn't have to restart and can do a hash check instead.  I have 144 megs of part 3 downloaded but it is starting at the beginning again and not doing a hash check and just downloading whats missing. Now I have gotten part 4 to download but there is still 97 megs of another part 4 from a failed download.

 

Anyway I hope I can get it before the weekend is through. Hope you can fix this prob or let me know what I need to change to get it to work.

 

As I was typing this message part 3 failed again. Poor poor system if this is what is going to happen. It started at the first of part 3 again.

This is something important that should be addressed.

 

I could have downloaded it in torrent form in a few hours and if it failed it would have restarted from when it left off.

It has been three days of trying to download the 8 parts of elemental and all that is left is the last one. Guess what it keeps failing for no reason whatever. This should be fixed because what is the point if you can't download anything in a reasonable amount of time.
