Hi Merlin,
Have you tried "wget -c" to resume an interrupted download? You can put the command inside an infinite loop that will keep retrying even if the connection is interrupted when you are not watching (say, overnight). The following should work:
while (true) ; do wget -c -T 60 ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/freesurfer/5.1.0/freesurfer-Linux-centos4-stable-pub-v5.1.0.tar.gz; sleep 600 ; done
If it doesn't receive data for 60 seconds, it stops, sleeps for 10 min, and tries automatically again. When the download is complete, it will continue trying again every 10 min until you press Ctrl+C, but since the file will already be complete, it will do nothing, so it's fine.
Hope this helps!
All the best,
Anderson
