Curious RH7 download problem

Hello PLUGgers

I tried all day yesterday (Sunday) to ftp the RH7 iso's from RedHat. I
think I tried about four times from a combination of W98 and RH6.2
boxes, using several different ftp programs. In all cases I used
ftp.redhat.com and cox@home. In all cases the outcome was the same: it
would smoke along at about 120kbps until I had transfered about
400Mb-450Mb. Then it would gradually slow down until I had about
500Mb-550Mb whereupon it would become unusably slow, essentially zero. I
never was successful. Any ideas?

Thanks, Ed.
