Many a times we are downloading big size files through default download manager available in firefox. Some times due to some or other problems the download fails (mostly because of internet connection dropped). For Eg. if your are downloading from http://exampleurl.com/file.iso and suddenly internet connection dropped the download failed and we are not able to resume.
Wget comes to rescue :
wget is a commandline download manager available in Linux which can be efficiently used to continue with the downloads and successfully complete it
Step 1 :
Rename the failed download file and remove the .part extension.
Eg. Rename the file from file.iso.part to file.iso
Step 2 :
Then from the commandline move to the location where the failed downloaded file is
Step 3 :
is wget command with -c option
Example :
cd /path/to/the/failed/download/file/
wget -c http://exampleurl.com/file.iso
