Click on one of the blue links below to  initiate a browser-based HTTP download.   

The size of the downloaded ZIP file should be exactly 541,356,838 bytes when checked with the Windows File Explorer right-click "Properties" command. Note that this is the actual file size , not the "Size on disk" which will vary depending the file system and cluster sizes used on your hard disk.

The actual exact size of the file  TNC_Test_CD_Ver-1.1.BIN  extracted from this zip file should be exactly  772,178,064 bytes bytes when checked with the Windows File Explorer right-click "Properties" command. 

WARNING:  This is a huge file that may take several hours to download, even on a broadband connection.  The probability of a failed download due to missed packets/acks/naks, router timeouts, random DHCP address changes, etc is far greater than with "normal" sized downloads.     There is a good chance that the download WILL stop somewhere in the middle of the transfer.  

You must use a  browser that supports the RESUME feature to continue the download without starting all over from the beginning.  If you download this using a Web browser, I strongly recommend downloading and installing the free Opera browser available at:

     http://www.opera.com/

Opera's file download manager is far more robust and reliable than the ones in either Internet Explorer or FireFox.   It's download screen toolbar offers a "Stop" (as distinct from "Cancel") button. Clicking this button produces a "Resume" button that will usually "unstick" and continue a frozen or hung download. 

Monitor the bytes transferred summary at the bottom of the Opera "Transfers" window.  if it stops increasing for more than 10-15 seconds, click "Stop" and then "Resume" to continue the transfer.

(I use Firefox for all my everyday browsing but use Opera exclusively for heavy-duty downloading.)
