Hi. I have a 10 GB file that I must copy over a wireless network
that isn't that reliable -- it will probably fail about once every 1GB.

What can I use that will automatically restart after a failure, without
losing work? I prefer something I can just start and forget.
 
Suggestions:

An FTP server/client pair that will allow resume, e.g. Filezilla.

Chunk the file into smaller pieces with a zip program.
 
Hi
You can also try to use program like WinRar, Compress the file using split
compressing. You can choose 800MB splitting, and you would get few 800MB
files that might copy well as is.
