How far away from the access point are you? Those little wireless usb adaptors arn't very powerful so you should be fairly close. Have you tried downloading using a wired connection to the router? It is likely some kind of wireless connection problem. Is there anything between you and the router that would cause a lot of interference?

I've had this problem with IE many times. Mozilla Firefox doesn't have this problem, at least for me. Give it a try.
