Honestly I don't understand why an unstable network connection leads
right into painful work.
On the other hand it's correct that you unfortunately hit the wrong
day. The FTP server is connected over a directed radio link and the day
you tried we had "really bad weather" (TM) over here. Together with a
container crane that has been erected between the two radio stations
this leads to significantly reduced transfer rate over the link:

Currently people are happily downloading the ISO image and other stuff,
