Convert download "Direct Link" to "torrent" ?

Hello my friends! :)

I just moved to Bora-bora and I have a really crappy connection (50kb/s with a lot of dropouts)
Being a gaming fan, I can't do without it. That's why I'm replaying Mount and Blade (which doesn't require any connection). The thing is, I want to download a mod of 1.35GB...And when I start the download after a few minutes the file cancels due to internet interruptions.

That's why I’m turning to your knowledge: Is it possible to "transform" a direct download link into a torrent? (Torrent because even if my connection drops, I can resume without a problem)

If you have the solution, or even an alternative solution to my problem...I’m all ears!
And if it's not possible...Could a kind soul upload it for me as a torrent? :D

Link to the mod: https://www.moddb.com/mods/a-clash-of-kings/downloads/a-clash-of-kings-20

Best regards,
Rémi

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 54.0.2840.71

    I HAVE THE ANSWER TO YOUR PROBLEM!!!

    well... it doesn't turn a link into µtorrent but it does mean that when there is a drop it stops then it continues! plus it's faster!!! The program is called wxDownload Fast !!! http://dfast.sourceforge.net/download.html and if you have problems with online video games or you just want to boost your connection, I recommend NetBalancer to choose which programs you want to prioritize for internet!

    I hope I answered your question and gave you some extra tips ;)

      Hello Baptiste,
      First of all, thank you for replying to me!

      So I just tried WXDOWNLOAD FAST but unfortunately after a cut at 10% of the download, I can't resume the download..:/

      Internet Download Manager IDM resumes downloads after interruption.

      otherwise, downloading via torrent isn’t the right sites that are missing on the net.

      yes with IDM you click resume and it continues your download from where it stopped if you're at 60% it continues 61 etc.

      you can even run several at once and use scheduling it downloads 1 by 1 or more as you want and you can shut down your PC when everything is finished no need to be there
      but with your super speed 1 it's already good.

      for torrents same thing
