Higher transfer rates seem to have some impact here:
wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/zesty-desktop-amd64.iso errors out in a few seconds
wget --limit-rate=10k http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/zesty-desktop-amd64.iso might run for a few 10s of seconds before erroring out
wget --limit-rate=1k http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/zesty-desktop-amd64.iso continues to work until I run out of patience (forever?). I've not waited the 18 days required for this to complete though :P
