Do you know of any download accelerator that can resume partial downloads from wget?

Question

I have used wget to try to download a big file. After several hours I realized that it would have been better to use a download accelerator. I would not like to discard the significant portion that wget has already downloaded. Do you know of any download accelerator that can resume this partial download?

Answer 1

You can use aria2c .. -c option should do the trick (look for word wget in man :))

Answer 2

I have discovered that lftp can resume the download too. An excellent tutorial can be found at http://tutorials.papamike.ca/pub/lftp.html.
