Nothing on the planet can work if the power is turned off.
Not computers, not cars, not TV's, not ANYTHING!!!
But you could use a bittorrent program for file sharing, which can restart where it left off when you turn the computer back on and reactivate the program.
I do not recommend using Limewire or Kazza or P2P programs because they ALWAYS contain spyware / adware and I have repaired many computers because of the other programs they download in the background with out your knowledge. It's like opening a floodgate and they eventually clog your computer until it's useless.
I use bit torrent.
The speed is determined by not just you but the other users. They might have a slower speed, or there could be heavy traffic (your end or theirs) slowing it down.
Some times other users sending you files log off and your stuck waiting till the next day when they log on again.
There are so many possibilities.
I have had a few 700MB movies take over a Week to get it all, and some never finish because when the other person is done they stop sharing.
Hope this helps, and remember to share at least 110% or for one week which ever comes first to help others.

YES.
you can restart the downloading when the connection was restarted or the system turned off for any reason
that type of softwares are called download managers or download accelerators.
FlashGet is one of the download manager in the world
http://www.flashget.com/
By using FlashGet u can resume broken downloads, stop download and restart it when you want.
If your system down when you downloading, flashget will pause your download and you can resume it later.

OFF mean OFF you can't do any thing with off.
However you can go to the following site get Getright download manager and you will be able for incremental downloads i.e. no matter how the downloading is interrupted, it starts from the broken point not from the bigning.

Try "Download Accelerator Plus" or DAP. It's a free software and you can download it form www.speedbit.com. You can get it free or pay for their premium version. Either way, you should give it a try, you might like it.

We are in Chicago. Is there any way to get to Miami, if we turned the car off?
