Wget from EBI ftp site not working (Connection Reset by Peer). Something wrong on my end?

Question

[RNAseq]

I am trying download data from EBI using wget, trying an example from http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browse/read-download.

wget ftp://ftp.sra.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ERA012/ERA012008/sff/library08_GJ6U61T06.sff

But I get the error

2016-12-27 18:25:13 (0.00 B/s) - Data connection: Connection reset by peer;

Is this something I miss adding to the wget commando or is the EBI ftp server not working?

Looks like the EBI ftp server is currently not functioning right. I can get a directory listing, but I cannot download files.
