Tried from two different systems on different networks, both times:

wget ftp://tug.org/historic/systems/texlive/2016/texlive-20160523b-source.tar.xz
--2016-10-29 14:20:21--
ftp://tug.org/historic/systems/texlive/2016/texlive-20160523b-source.tar.xz
           => 'texlive-20160523b-source.tar.xz'

There's a copy here:

...but it'd be better not to use that as the download URL in the .info file.

A better bet would be to use the OSU mirror:
