Having troubles with downloading iso

Every time I download checksums never match, even small net install iso! Is there any torrent file to download or any other tool?

How and from where do you download the ISO and the checksum file? The name of the ISO needs to match the one from the checksum file…
https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/

Eg.:

openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Snapshot20260618-Media.iso.sha256
openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Snapshot20260618-Media.iso
sha256sum -c openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Snapshot20260618-Media.iso.sha256
openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Snapshot20260618-Media.iso: OK

Tried from different mirrors as well. Interesting thing is no matter what mirror I choose downloading speed is the same ~10mbits/sec.

This does not really answers @hui questions complete.

Please show the sha256sum command and it’s output. Only telling that checksums never match isn’t helping, we want to see things.

If you use a Linux System to download, you can use wget:

wget https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Current.iso
wget https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Current.iso.sha256
wget https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Current.iso.sha256.asc

Maybe this is the Problem:

stephan@linux64:~/Downloads> LANG=C sha256sum -c openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Current.iso.sha256 
sha256sum: openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Snapshot20260618-Media.iso: No such file or directory
openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Snapshot20260618-Media.iso: FAILED open or read
sha256sum: WARNING: 1 listed file could not be read

stephan@linux64:~/Downloads> LANG=C cat openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-x86_64-Current.iso.sha256

So download:

I have manged to download net version and installed the latest and greatest. Now I am having some random freezes on KDE both on x11 and wayland. And also this:

I will try to get and install earlier version I guess.

New problem, please new thread. People will not look at threads with titles that do no point to their interests/knowledge/etc.

To sum it up, downloading on Windows via browser results with broken iso file for me that can’t be burned. Downloading on Linux via wget solves the issue.

And to sum it up from my point of view, you did not tell at all how and with what you were downloading. When asked you posted some (part of a) GUI window which did not tell much about what you used. Specially in a Linux forums where people may even never have used MocroSoft Windows. :joy:

I was trying to download Tumbleweed from get.opensuse via browser (several actually).

All fine, but what you do not tell, we do not know. Assuming is the worst thing one can do when asking and/or giving computer technical help. And no-one here is clairvoyant.
