What exactly does the updater (recover) do that is different?  Sorry if its a stupid question, I\'m not very good with computers.

It simply doesn\'t load the GUI (Graphic User Interface) of the updater.

Do I need that thing?

If you\'re experiencing graphic issues then run the updater in recovery mode. If not, you can run the \"normal\" version. It\'s your choice, really none will make anything that the other doesn\'t.
Besides, speed issues should be now solved, as it seems that now the server isn\'t loosing that big amount of packets.

Honestly, the only reason to run it with the GUI is to get a progress bar and a speed report.  I run it in the text (recover) mode most of the time.
