  * status:  needs_information => new


Comment:

 Changing networkstatus_dl_check_interval() in main.c to a lower value
 seems to resolve this for me.  (Please confirm?) Before we do that in
 production, though, we need to check whether there are any negative
 effects (e.g., runaway download attempts on failure) from doing so.
