I'm on my third try attempting to get the 2.5.2 Ion update downloaded; it keeps failing most of the way through, cause my hotspot's bad, and the house wifi is worse.
It's failing, though, in an interesting manner: it won't restart, as Firefox usually will.
My suspicion is that this is because the link one clicks to start the download *is not a link to a file*; it's a link that runs a script that redirects you to a file, so your browser doesn't have a file to inquire about, and hence can't restart.
I dunno how common failed downloads are, but ETCs webmasters might want to reconsider that architecture...
