DC++ will, by default, automatically search for alternative sources for files in your download queue.  If it does not, make sure the option is enabled (File | Settings |  Advanced |Automatically search for alternative download locations). At the time of this writing, DC++ searches are based on its TTH value. Any matches that are the exact same TTH hash are added as alternative sources.  The file(s) will now resume downloading. 

You can manually add files into the download queue by similar methods.  Search for a file (it's best to also specify a minimum file size to reduce the number of unneeded results). If the file has the same TTH hash as the one in your download queue, you can right-click on it and select Download to. The existing file should be in the submenu.  If this does not happen, then the file is not the same size or TTH hash.

If the file refused to resume, then you likely have a Rollback Inconsistency or TTH Inconsistency.
