I feel you on the incomplete downloads thing. One trick I use is to check the file size before and after downloading. If it’s smaller than expected, I’ll retry with `-C -` to resume.
Also, `-L` is a must for redirects, but sometimes servers block curl requests. In that case, I’ll add a user-agent header with `-A` to make it look like a browser.
For timing out, try increasing the timeout limit with `--max-time`.
