I don't use cuteftp, but i share with you some of your problems: i 
also used a dial-up connection, and it is unreliable.  

I suggest you to look at MTU.  Check whether the MTU size in your 
dial-up configuration is the same as your ISP.  That can speed up 
your transference rate.

In my own name and -- i guess -- in the name of all dial-up
connection users, i'd like to ask Cygnus to split its files into
even smaller chunks.  It was a really good idea to split them, but
the size diminition doesn't seem enough to warranty the successful 
download to many of us poor dial-up downloaders. :-(
