Is there way to start several downloads but have the ones started after the first to be on pause until the one before it finishes?
Got a tip for us?

Perhaps long ago there was a Safari extension that worked, but the current Safari removed many old extensions.
The App Store has download accelerator that may help: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/download-shuttle-speed-boost/id847809913?mt=12
You most likely need to see if Firefox or Chrome has an extension, otherwise you will need to find a separate app.

If comfortable with Terminal, command line, and can decipher URLs, this will work.
For example, to download the MacRumors logo from the top of the page:
Just put the commands into a text file and then can do from command line: source my_text_file_of_commands
Or type it out manually on the command line: hit enter, enter the next, and will build a queue.
Oh and: make sure you put the URL within quotes, otherwise might get some odd behavior.
Code:
cd ~/Downloads
curl -O url_to_file_to_downloadFor example, to download the MacRumors logo from the top of the page:
