Looks like you haven't configured d4x properly
d4x->Options->General
then Download -> Limits
there is a line about no of parts to split file, put that to 5 or 6
This should increase your download speed as file will be split into 5/6 parts and downloaded simultaneously

I use wget. Command line only but very efficient.

Yes, wget is small, works well, has many options.

There is a Gnome front end, GWget
