  Not saying its a smart thing to do but back in the day when i was on
diaulup I downloaded several Linux ISOs. This was when most distros
were limited to 1 CD so < 700MB but still its doable. Determination
conqures all.

bittorrent is probably the best bet, for me its always been the
fastest source at 300+ KB/s  while the traditional mirrors often times
are closer to 100KB/s.  Bittorrent will also resume as long as people
are still seeding the file on the same tracker witch isnt a problem
with linux distros usually.
