Generally speaking, the OSSI upload site can resume downloads if the user doesn't log out.  It can't resume if the user logs out because the session ID, the way the site keeps track of downloads, will be different.  

In some circumstances, the download may fail to resume because of network difficulties.   This happens most often when the browser being used is Internet Explorer.  We have found Chrome with its download manager or Firefox with the "DownThemAll!" extension to be the most reliable browsers for downloading large files.  Firefox and the "DownThemAll!" extension is the most robust download manager currently available.
