When using wget with the -c option, it does recover and resume the download after network failures. However, after it finishes the download (in my case downloading Fedora-16-i386-DVD.iso), I run the sha256sum on the downloaded ISO and it is completely different to the value stored in the file of CHECKSUMS on the same page URL - http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/16/Fedora/i386/iso/
I downloaded this iso at least twice, with the same result - the sha256sum performed on the file does not match the one at the above URL, and nor does it match the result of sha256sum performed on the previous downloads of the iso file. So, something is not right with wget!!
