Another tech question?

I have dial up.So if I'm downloading a game and it says it will take 1 day and 1 hr to complete is there any way I can download 8 hrs then save my progress then download another 8 hrs and so on and so forth?

Probably not. I have never heard of a dial up connection that would stay connected that long anyway. You might try your local library and see if you can download it there, save to USB drive. Or go to a friend's house that is on cable.

You could use a download manager so that you can resume where you left off. I've used them in the past but can't think of the name off the top of my head.

If you don't mind the ad-space, DAP is good enough to use.
