Are you using ftp to download the file? You may have better luck with another utility, eg wget and got (https://github.com/melbahja/got) both work fine for me on PinebookPro using Manjaro linux.
If that doesn't work I would try connecting via another network, eg library or cafe wifi rather than your regular wifi. There should not be any problem to download a file.
