If you can't get a file from ftp.freebsd.org then it's worth trying for it on ftp2.freebsd.org, or ftp3.freebsd.org Locality works to, ftp.uk.freebsd.org for example. You'll probably do best if you browse the ftp server before trying to download it, that way you'll be able to see the binaries they have and you'll know whether or not it's worth trying to download or just moving on to another mirror.
