Problem with iPod software update

[roostersully]

I'm trying to download the latest update for my iPod touch
My Internet is weird where if you download to much stuff it gets really slow
When I try to download the update it's gets almost done then my Internet gets slow and the download has to stop
When the download stops all of what i've downloaded is gone
Is anyone else know why this happens or has this problem?

yes, i had the same problem, it eventually downloaded on the 5th or 6th try but very annoying...subsequently, my "other" category ballooned to almost 12 gb and i couldnt figure out why....i had to reset, backup and reload my entire ipod, it was really annoying...does anyone know why this could happen? or has it happened to you?
it would be nice to know why it happened so i can avoid it in the future...the only other thing i did prior was download distantshore

That didn't happen to me
But I finally got it downloaded
I still have no idea why it happens

Just download like 150 mb of it, then pause it... wait a while, and then resume! that should do the trick?

Mine didn't work on the first try though, fyi...
