It's "jigdo", and it's a great way to download big files for  Debian.  It's
the only thing I use to download Debian installer images these days, as it
even does the md5 checksum for you.  More info here:

Ubuntu download might be too small to test, that's why I suggested a dvd
download.  The logic is, if you can download large files on the same OS but
from a different software platform like jigdo or Iceweasel, you've isolated
the problem to be only with the torrent interface.
