FTP AGAIN!

Yesterday was another miserable night with the ftp download again. Someone recommended me “CuteDownload” as this time round I needed to download 2 x 20MB files from my UK supplier. It turned out to be “Sux-Big-Time-Download”. Messed around with downloading the program alone took me the whole night, managed to try downloading the first file for almost 1 hour before the ftp went “bizarre”. The ftp folder suddenly went missing??? The folder became empty. WHATSUP?! It was already past 12am… My client needed those files first thing next morning.

Called up my UK supplier at our 12 plus am, which to them was around 4 plus pm. My UK counterpart suggested to email the 2 x 20MB files to me!? Out of “Desperation”, I obliged. Half an hour later, he called to tell me the emails bounced back! “…#@*%…”

Lastly he decided to give me via the old link that I managed to download a file the other day. It took me slightly more than 1 hour per file. What I did – slept through that 1 hour while leaving the laptop to download the first file. Set alarm clock to wake up again at around 3 am for the second file. And lastly managed to wait up again (dun noe y?) at 6 plus to off my “overworked but no OT” laptop! Juz too bad!

Anyone got a better idea to download 20MB files via ftp?
