I chose nluug because Thorsten reported it as a good source. But both connections timed out at the same time during my coffee break. :(
Good thing is that the ncftp download resumed at the breakpoint and
it's almost done now (running at 177,2kB/s now). But I haven't found
out how I can resume a download with Mozilla.
Now I'm really lost! The download worked until just 1 second was left. Then it stopped, timed out and showed:
------------------------------------------------------------------------ MandrakeLinux-9.....iso: ETA: 0.01 650,37/650,49 177,21 Could not read reply from control connection -- timed out get MandrakeLinux....iso: could not retrieve remote file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
The same output I received from the servers last night. This happened with ncftp, ftp, Mozilla, on 2 different machines, both with sufficient space on the target partition and on the tmp partition. Nothing has changed with my internet connection and I never had problems with downloads before. Last large download was RC1 when I started all 3 downloads at the same time using ncftp.
Now I made another attempt with Mozilla at ftp.surnet.nl and it timed out at 230MB and 40 minutes to go. Not knowing how to resume a download I give up.
Worst thing is: Now I wasted 2.8GB of my monthly limit of 5GB and can't get RC2 anymore via download because I need the remaining 2GB for other things. So if Final comes out in September I'll have to wait until October... :((

You need to get familiar with rsync. Navigate to the directory with the partial downloads and run this from the command line:
rsync -Pv --stats --progress ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-iso/i586/MandrakeLinux-9.2rc2-CD*
