To StephenB's point, since the linux machine keeps having a connection, but the wireless drops off, I don't think the bottleneck is with the ISP. The wifi connection itself stays around for a little bit, but ultimately my machine just completely drops off if I don't interrupt the download. The download itself seems to continue fine though.
I upgraded to the latest firmware I could see V1. Quick update: after the download finishes, the wifi also comes back. The download rate was about 1. Wifi signal used to get fluctuating if huge or say even MB file download on wireless client say 65Mbps but the effective bandwidth would be less than half of it and if you start downloading the rate will further vary based on the signal congession and band steering all those stuff can be minimized with 5ghz band but signal would be further weak in this.
The issue is not that the wifi throughput drops if I use it for a large file download - that would be expected to some extent. This happens on both the 5Ghz and the 2. The router remains connected to the WAN with decent through put, it is just that the wireless connectivity completely dies. Which router by the way. Did u try resetting the router and tried again. It might be dying but not sure if its firmware or life of the product.
I updated to the latest firmware and restarted etc. The thing that makes me think this is a bug, rather than a hardware issue, is that the OP has the same issue and then the router completely recovers after the download is done. It suggests that a wired download somehow completely occupies the router where as a wireless download doesn't. I also have the same problem. If I start the download wirelessly it kills my own session along with all others so I can't download a large around 1Gb file wirelessly.
I have gigabit service from Comcast. Not to deminish anyone elses problem but mine was solved with a new wireless network adapter. Replaced my old one and no more dropped connections. My old old must have been pretty bad to effect other nearby devices as well.

Upgrading your network equipment speed will not increase the speed of the connection they are providing to you.
In my experience Verizon FiOS, unlike traditional cable TV providers, provides what they say with a bit extra for good luck, both up and down. We have three separate FiOS services in our shop and are very pleased. The only problems we have had involve fiber cuts that were out of Verizon's control--overhight trucks pulling fiber off a pole.
It's quite important to not mix and match as a common mistake is that 1GB of data takes a second on a 1Gbps line - actually more like 10 seconds. If you are 'provided' with a certain speed, that is the speed that you'll get usually. Sometimes, they'll over-provide.
Sometimes they'll give you equipment that is the limiting factor. Replacing this gives you access to what they're really providing you. Not in this instance, however. The limit you'd hit would be if you asked for something like a 1. If all of your switches are only Gigabit, that would be an extra Mbits you're leaving on the table. Hence, the new 2,4,10Gbit standards.
If your plan would already be 2 or 10 Gbps, you would automatically profit of the extra bandwidth when you upgrade your router and your network. Upgrading your network without your router supporting 10 Gbps won't make a difference neither. They should be able to see how many times your connection has been reset recently, and can also observe the sound-to-noise ratio SNR ratio on your line.
Alternatively, you can try using NetLimiter or similar software as suggestied by thecount If you are asking the question in this forum, chances are you don't know what that means, so get a TCP-optimising package and run it on your PC. This will speed up all your network communications and may help with the downloads.
The Internet Explorer cache is set to a very high value. A reasonable value is somewhere between 10 and MB. A much higher value will cause the system to slow down over time, and can affect browsing and downloading in particular.
I don't thing this happened to the original poster of the thread, but it may be the case for others. To change the settings, click on the cog icon in IE and choose Internet options, then change the setting as shown in the screenshot below. Jennifer I would like to say thank you, Oron. You're comment about downloads being too fast for the computer got me thinking.
I was having the same problem, but only when I was using a torrent client. I went in and put a limit on the download speed and have not had any problems since. Once again, thank you. Paul I am having the same problem.
Windows 7 SP1 on a desktop. Download of any file freezes part way through or never starts. Bizarre as I can send and receive large emails so not a network problem - just a problem for downloads. Have also tried various browsers without any change. Any suggestions smayonak I'm not entirely sure where the cause of this problem originates but it must be in a system component common to all internet use.
More than likely a cache-like component that Windows uses when it accesses the internet. I believe that the TEMP directory and the internet cache are used to interact with downloaded content and might cause the issue.
Some browsers appear to use a cache outside of the IE cache, whereas others place everything in the IE cache. In theory, a corrupted download may somehow interfere with new download attempts of the same file.
However, this is not something I'm an expert on - and it's only a theory at this point. This is a hail Mary: Try using CCleaner to clean the system's temp and cache files. Then reattempt the download. Only attempt its use judiciously. It could be a virus. Franklin what about when it stop thinking the download is complete but ist im trying to download pokemon and have tried 42 times but keeps stoping.
I noticed on all the downloads that would fail that the download speed would ramp up to kB a second and then just taper off to zero and remain hung up until cancelling. With three different test files that would not previously download after trying them different days and times over a 3 week period I was finally able to download every single one.
Probably be fixed with some patch to Windows sooner or later. The computer was actually to fast for a change Dan Thanks for the suggestion! I am sure there are other programs out there that can do the same for free.
