The mirrors have nothing really to do with us, but I repeat, this looks 
like something to do with your end, running this:

sudo wget 
ftp://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.samba.org/stable/samba-4.11.2.tar.gz

Results ultimately in this:

samba-4.11.2.tar.gz  100%[=========================>]  17.66M 
4.03MB/s    in 4.8s

If it is taking you a long time to download, then it is likely to be 
something between your keyboard and the mirror ;-)
