When you say downloading, we assume you mean the receiving of real-time streaming data.

When you have a problem like you are describing, we need to see the Message Log at the time. Instructions:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=PostingInformation.php#MessageLog

Make sure you have this option on:
Data/Trade Service Settings: Reconnect on Failure (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Settings)

You should not have to restart Sierra Chart or do anything. If the data feed is lost, Sierra Chart will reconnect if it is set to reconnect. Any problem outside of that, is unheard of and makes no technical sense.

Also refer to:
Intraday Chart or Chart Bars Not Updating | Blank Intraday Chart | "Currently no data to display" message for Intraday Chart: 3.3 - Session Start Time and End Time not Covering Current Time

To monitor the connection more precisely, refer to:

(Last section)
