#45851 Hello! I am from Russia, therefore excuse me for my bad English! We are trying to download binary tools via get.py script and have "IOError: [Errno socket error] [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer".
"wget -c http://arduino.esp8266.com/linux64-xten ... fb9.tar.gz" does not work too.
Windows version of compiler does not downloadable too.
Board manager of Arduino IDE can't update boards list with both links:
http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/packa ... index.json
http://arduino.esp8266.com/staging/pack ... index.json

But we have connection with server arduino.esp8266.com:
ping arduino.esp8266.com
PING arduino.esp8266.com (104.131.82.128) 56(84) bytes of data.

#45874 That is strange, because the arduino.esp8266.com is completely responsive from my side, and been able to download some of those files.
Maybe you have some firewall issues, or some other issues with your ISP.

Problem is back, I could not update the boards on my Windows arduino IDE. So tried on my linux with git, and running after get.py, but the same.
Look with wget
# wget http://arduino.esp8266.com/linux64-xten ... fb9.tar.gz
--2017-05-04 16:29:26-- http://arduino.esp8266.com/linux64-xten ... fb9.tar.gz
Resolving arduino.esp8266.com (arduino.esp8266.com)... failed: Name or service not known.
wget: unable to resolve host address ‘arduino.esp8266.com’

And looks getting worst as the host is not recognized.
