Patch Download constantly freezes

[sladi]

Hi there. I am trying to test out the free trial to decide whether I would like to pay for the game or not, and as such am having to download the massive 200 and whatever MB patch. The problem is, it gets part way into the download and then just stops. I have to close the program and restart at, at which point it sometimes picks up where it left off, and sometimes starts over in the specific file it was downloading. For example, I have been trying to download the r2_dessert2_00508.patch file for over an hour now. It will get to some random point in the download and then just stop. This is a little frustrating. I play other online games and have never encountered this issue before, including when I download the Ryzom client (granted, I used a download manager for that). Any ideas? I am through a router, though the proper ports appear to be open. I have a cable connection. Yes, I run Norton Internet Security, but it is 2006. P4 3.2gHz system with 2 gig ram. Need anything else?
