It might be faster to enter the code manually, hexadecimal.

 

I'll send you the code.  You'll need a printer with 47,000 sheets of paper.  Hope you have some extra ink!

I like your idea, Lighthope1. @GabeU , you should give it a try.

I think I'll be just a tad bit short.  😛

Kill it, reboot your modem, then restart the download. For some reason sometimes it doesn't get going until the second try.

A 60GB download?  EEEK!!!!  At my file download speed it would take 20.21 years.  LOL.

That's actually one of the first things I tried.  First a couple of internal reboots, then power cycles.  

 

Today isn't much better.  Hopefully tomorrow will be.

What's funny is that there's a new Cumulative Update.  I decided to try it in the normal Windows Update fashion, and in fifteen minutes it's already at 30% downloaded.  

 

The one I'm having such a difficult time with is from the Update Catalog, and for my mini PC, as trying it from that a couple of days ago was taking too long the normal way.  I gave up and decided to download it manually using my desktop.  

 

After this Cumulative Update is through I'll try the manual download again for the other computer, but this time of the current Cumulative Update, as downloading the older one would now be redundant.

I guess MS doesn't care for congestion.

LOL. Same goes for CenturyLink.

They need Mucinex, they stink.....A theme emerges.
