I had a similar issue with my satelite connection and found that i needed to use "Orbit" a downloader program that was able to resume if the transmision was interupted (check it out with google) Since most users use md5sum checking programs it is always a good thing to verify it before burning, but I have to admit I have gotten lax with doing that too. Another thing to consider is just purchase a dvd/cd from one of the places that advertise on www.distrowatch.com that way you can get a couple of different distros along with knowing the disc's are checked and should work, they are really pretty cheap. The livecd will not affect your windows partition while being used, it is a cool way to try before you settle on the distro.
