I'm having this same issue both on my home internet connection (Gig-speed / very fast) and my corporate VPN connection. Files will download extremely slowly for about 30 seconds and then just stall out and give me a "network failure" message. This is ridiculous and obviously a widespread issue. Has been going on for over a week.

I tried the same but for me with or without VPN is getting worse and worse. Now it's not 5 minutes, but it's taking forever.

Having this same issue. It does not appear to be a network issue. I can download images quickly from other stock sites. This is on Adobe's end. Any recommendations?

This is super weird. I enabled my VPN and the file downloaded without issue.

I can't even get a download to complete. I have tried multiple browsers. I even tried my phone while connected to my cell carrier. It is busted from my point of view.

Could you share some of the asset IDs that you're having difficulty downloading please?

Tried all of these fixes and nothing works. Downloads over the last three days have taken 30-45 minutes for a 4MB image.
