   Each of the last three days, when I've tried to download a new terrain by setting up a custom arena, I've gotten a Host Connection Lost partway through the download each day. Day 1 was marianas, Day 2 was Hawaii, and just now Day 3 was Fester.  I can go back in later and continue the download where it left off, but since it is happening every time I try to download a new terrain off the server, it's getting to be a pain in the butt.  I had three Host Connection Losts while downloading Fester because of the file size.  Never had a problem like this before, but now it seems I can't download any new terrains in one try.  It's now taking 2 to 3 attempt to download even the small terrains due to the Host Connection Lost usually about a third of the way through the download.

I cannot duplicate this, at the office, or at home.  I would like to see a PingPlot to downloads.hitechcreations.com please.

I'll have to look at how to run the pingplot thing.  Only thing I can say right now is it started at my last home where I had Time Warner Cable's Roadrunner, then I moved last week and it's still happening at my new place with AT&T DSL. :bhead

Once I rejoin the arena I'm creating, it finishes the download, it's just weird how I always get a Host Connection Lost 1/3 of the way through the download.  I'm kinda worried it may affect uploading my new terrains also (will find that out soon).
