I found that some free-WIFI APs block the download of OsmAnd maps. Perhaps a generic filter to block content they don't know and can't filter.

The download links may be semi-secret and worth to protect from overeager download managers, on the other hand given that the maps are so large that any reasonable selection won't fit into the memory of most devices there should be some mirrors allowing direct download.
