Wget question

Hello!

I'm using wget to download online streamed media (Icecast ogg stream), and it 
is crucial to have every download in separate files, therefore,
I've set up wget to create a new file whenever a download is started.
However, when there is a connection loss, and when it's restored, wget seems to 
continue the same file, it never creates a new one automacitally
not matter how much time has passed. This way, during a one hour connection 
loss, a one hour gap will be created in the download (ogg audio),
and there's no way to tell when it had happened.
My question is, is there a way or a combination of command parameters to force 
wget NOT to continue writing the old file, but to creatie a new one
every time a disrupted net connection is restored?
What I'd need is basically make wget to start downloading (and creating a new 
output file) again after a timeout. Is this possible?

Sincerely,
David
