I think I found a work around
click the # of files left hyper link
cancel the download of the current interupted file.
The next file in line should begin downloading at that point.
Make a note of the missed file to upload at a later time
and change your settings so the cpu doest go to sleep.

Man ... you are brilliant! You don't know how many times I have been frustrated with this little (BIG!!!) issue. I upload files > 20 GB at a time and it has happened to me so many times (Mainly because of bad internet or someone closing the lid of the laptop).
It is crazy foolish to me that the programers of a product like DropBox that revolves around UPLOADING and DOWNLOADING would not foresee AND go through the trouble of fixing such a common and frustrating issue for their clients!
Thank you Charles S.35! TY1 TY! TY!
