May I suggest lynx!  Just ssh or telnet into your server and download
with lynx.  It works great!  


cd to the directory where you want the package


lynx http://www.php.net/downloads.php


Arrow down to the package you want to download.


Type  d  for download


Select   Save to disk


Hit Enter to accept the suggested filename, or change it as you see
fit.


Type  q   for quit, answer y (or enter) to Are you sure.


There it is...
