Ey bob , you should try to use JDownloader and you can pause the download 
and re nude when ever you want or , you can keep you laptop on the nigth 
downloading, the dsl is not that bad, at least you use Dial -up :S

I think you have been given a good solution to slow service, Bob. But,
another option depending upon your exact problem is the command wget.

wget -c url.iso

lets you stop download and start again at your convenience.  You can
download a few MB, and start again, even many days later, with no data
lost, as long as the iso has not been changed.

It expects to find previous downloads in the directory where the
terminal is setting, and if it is not there, will restart the download.

It seems to me, by defective memory, that there are mirrored images of a
small net iso which is designed to download other things desired. But, I
can't remember if Ubuntu actually lets you select which packages to
download, like debian does or not.
