It is possible that the next-hop or the endpoint doesn't accept more than one
connection at a time.  It is only in that case, that axel can't use more than
one connection/thread to download.

The problem is that there isn't enough 'real estate' to be able to show
progress on the other threads.

Like I said before, you should be able to verify that the threads are making
progress by looking at the network I/O or even strace.
