I also would recommend the net-install CD- it's a quicker
shorter download (150M) than the full CD (600M) images so
it should be easier for you to get a full image before your
intermittent network connection breaks. And the net-install
process also resumes on disconnect fairly well.
Or you could even try the bizcard image- it's only 50MB.
Regardless- you don't need to download more than one CD
image- after packages selected (like KDE) will be happily
download from the net.
If you are having trouble getting a full image you might
want to try wget -c: it can resume a failed download.
