I am not sure if the message "bad gateway" comes from wget (it's not
in 1.6 sources so it might be a message generated by the system).
Please, could you send us a full debug log (-d) produced when wget
stopped (anonymized so that noone can read the account names,
passwords, IPs, file names) ? Could you also give us more details
about the system you are running wget on? Solaris? 64bit executable?
There were some problems with newver wget versions compiled on Solaris
as a 64bit executables recently.
