Copying Large Files Over Ssh

If you tried to copy files via SSH you know that you can use scp to do this. For example:

SCP

#

scp you@1.2.3.4:/path/to/file.rar ./

# or to download folder
scp you@1.2.3.4:/path/to/folder ./

Most of the time, this solution works, but if you have an unstable connection, you have to start downloading files all over again. Even worse, if the file is large, it will take a long time to download.
