Hi digb150,
Seems you are using curl to download your file. Curl provides option to continue download because of broken connection, for example. I don't know what command options you are using, but if you have something like:
curl -C - -o <your file name> -L https://www.dropbox.com/s/123456asdfghjthghy/<your file name>?dl=1
