A small 60mb file takes about 20 minutes to download, but a 2gb file will take about 5 minutes to download. It was like this for a while. Recently, near the end of a download, usually about 100mb before its finished, the download speed will drop and keep dropping until it hits 0kb/s. Any solutions?

Same download server, or different ones? Same time of day and day of the week? There's a number of variables involved that will affect the download time / speed making a direct comparison difficult.

It does it for any website, for every download. It started about 1-2 weeks ago.
