Why does my download keep restarting

My download keeps downloading to almost being done and then randomly will jump back down to 10 gigabytes remaining. I have tried restarting origin and the download. Any ideas?

    This can happen with a low quality Wi-Fi connection.

    Connecting your machine to your router directly with a cable rather than via Wi-Fi will improve your connection quality and should be done if at all possible.

    Thanks.
