I am wondering if there may be server issues, as for some reason large games are a struggle to fully download from this forum, eg Jennifer at almost 200mb. This download keeps stopping in random positions before it ends, and I cannot resume. It could be the same for other large files. I am not having any problems elsewhere on any other website. Thanks for any help.
 
I've put in a ticket to my host, but thus far nothing good as come of it. It would be good if I could get a baseline of filesize that fails.

Thanks for the quick replies 8) Some sort of incompatibility between the server config and file system being used? I don't know. The download speed is fairly consistent here, no major drops (290kb-330kb/s, usually sticks to 320kb). It cuts out at any given time, even when at its peak, and I don't receive a message telling me the file did not complete-with the usual 'unexpected end of archive' when I attempt to decompress.

As BeasTie mentions any files over 100mb are a struggle, but it can stop at any given position, whether its 30MB or 160MB for the file I mentioned. A few attempts so far but not managing to complete. It is hard to tell if the issue may only be related to large files too since smaller ones are obviously far more likely to complete, but I will keep trying some to see if they have the same problem. Are there any mirrors, or does the owner of the Jennifer file I state as an example have a homepage in which I can attempt to download from for the time being? Thanks
