Windows users with multiple internet connections
Worth noticing
The beta is unsigned; the page provides a SHA-256 comparison method and explains the Windows SmartScreen warning.

Field notes

The calculator lets visitors choose a file size and enter Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and phone-tether speeds, but its estimate assumes independent links and a server that supports ranged requests. A separate demo depicts a connection dropping during a transfer; the page identifies it as a simulation. The download is labeled beta 0.2.0-beta.2, and the author explains the unsigned-installer warning alongside a checksum verification command.
