Default Maps wont download during install script

Hello.
I have a question regarding the install script and the part where it downloads maps. For some reason that I don't know, it won't work on my home WiFi, but, it will work on another WiFi.

I have tried on 3 different computers at my house to install the server, and it has failed 5 times. (I really wish I had taken a screen shot of the error, but as soon as I see it again, I will).

I thought, oh it must be their (your?) servers, but then I took one of the 3 computers ( a laptop ) to a CASINO of all places and connected to their free WiFi and then the install worked fine. My conclusion is that it must be my WiFi somehow causing this.

I have all firewalls disabled, no AV on the machine to cause issues and it just wont work at my house.

My question is, does anyone have a suggestion as to what or why my WiFi at home would not work but other places will when it comes to downloading the map files during the install.

A strange thing also, is if I monitor my WiFi connection, there is traffic coming down the entire time it is sitting there downloading the file and eventually when it fails, the maps.zip file shows a random size (meaning its not the same every time I try) so its like it is downloading... but it never finishes. Now that I think about it more, that's what the error suggested, was that it never got the "eofc" (or something like that) for the ZIP file.

Anyway, any thoughts would be helpful.
I can just install the server elsewhere and this isn't a HUGE deal but still, why is it doing this.

Thanks!!

PS I also have the ports forwarded for eqemu not sure if that would affect this part of the install or not.
