Hi David,
I had the same problem and now totaly switched from miktex to texlive.
Texlive has context in a new version in it and up to date a online
installer so that you only need about 2 MB for the first download and
the rest will come by launching the installer.
My advice would be to switch away from miktex to texlive it now has the
same onlineupdatefunktion as miktex.
Greetings
Martin
