You need to synchronize the size of the data paths involved.  Obtain a
manual on how to do this from your local system if need be....but here
is what I do:

connect to the host your downloading from.
send a break signal to the host computer.  (see your comm terminal docs)-
     mine break signal is Ctrl-end
type %bpc=8
type another carriage return, and follow what you were doing before.

Hope this helps.
