Multi-connection multi-part file downloading tools on Linux
Posted on In QAIs there any good multi-connection multi-part file downloading tools on Linux? wget
is great but can only make 1 connection for 1 file. Sometimes, it is too slow on some networks.
I use aria2
which supportsmMulti-connection download.
aria2 can download a file from multiple sources/protocols and tries to utilize your maximum download bandwidth. Really speeds up your download experience.
Try this command:
aria2c -m 10 -s 10 -x 10
-d /path/to/dir/ -o file.name http://example.com/file.name
or
aria2c -m 10 -s 10 -x 10
http://example.com/file.name
