Our .zip files are incomplete after downloading and they throw a "file is invalid" error.

Hello Everyone,   Let me begin by saying I have read through another thread on this very issue.  Here is the link to it:   https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/View-download-and-export/Problem-ope...

How was this issue resolved?  I'm having the same problem.

     It hasn't been.  I am working through issues with slow WiFi being a contributing factor, but why the download doesn't just pick back up and just ends without error as an incomplete download has not yet been resolved.  I am looking at other options outside of DropBox that make my downloads more reliable.  Or potentially using a Download Manager to make sure the download actually completes.
