Hi all,
Some users around the world get slow downloads and/or frequent disconnections because they are assigned a poorly-performing mirror [qt-project.org]. We are waiting for features that work around poor mirror performance, such as the ability to choose your mirror [bugreports.qt-project.org], and the ability to resume downloads [bugreports.qt-project.org].
In the meantime, if you (or someone you know) are experiencing difficulties with the online installer, try the Qt SDK Repo Chooser [github.com]. It sets up a repository locally that points to a mirror of your choice, which would hopefully give you a better download experience.
So far, I’ve provided a Windows build. I have successfully run the Windows build on Ubuntu 14.04 through Wine in Windows XP mode, although the repository path needs to be converted from a Windows path to a Linux path.
If you’d like to contribute another build (especially an OS X one), I’d be happy to host it on the GitHub downloads page.
