Can't download image ( Sept2015 )

Hi Massimo,

I can't download the latest image - I have tried three machines on different networks - and they all fail.
And I downloaded a whole ISO of Linux Mint 1.5G - first time - no issues with the download.

thanks

A september 2015 image doesn't even exist...

You need to use a download manager, as I have written in my email !

Sorry Oct2015

I have never had to use a Download manager for any of your previous .ISOs I have been using FireFox at home and IE at work, and a Linux machine - all fail towards the end of the download.

I just thought that other people would have had the same problem with this particular image ( the previous one - I had no issues downloading "20151018" )

Then you've been lucky so far.

Again, please use a download manager.
On the Linux machine you can just use wget, without installing anything.

Just downloaded Firefox's Turbo Download Manager and the download worked first time after that.

I can't believe that Mozila doesn't include a ( decent ) Download Manager in it's normal distribution of Firefox.

Thanks Massimo

Yeah, I can't believe that too.
Chrome has the same issue and it's the most used browser worldwide. No resume of file transfers. That sucks.
