How could I download, say, 20 units for SETI to process in case my net connection goes down?

there's a few programs you can download to let you do that...I use SetiDriver on my laptop so when I'm at my dads and dont have an always-on connection (I have dial-up there) I can still keep chrunching

I used to manually download workunits using the commandline client, then cut and paste the required files into a folder. I had like 10 workunits at a time. I would process 1 until it's done, then cut and paste the required files into another folder (to send folder), then cut and paste a new workunit into the folder with the .exe file and process again. When I connected to the internet (once a day), I would cut and paste them into the folder with the .exe file and send them all one by one. I don't have to do any of this anymore, but I usually keep 1 extra workunit with me in case Berkeley's servers go down. BOINC will solve this problem by caching workunits (as much as you want).
