"Failed - Network Error" when trying to download Battle.net Application Installer

Same here issue. The download nearly completes then says failed- network error

Hey folks,

Please be advised - this is ONLY for players who are having the error message “Failed - Network Error” when trying to download the battle.net application from our downloads page. Players who are having other installation errors will not get any benefits from these links.

When we get reports of this problem, usually it is because there is a problem with your ISP finding our website’s download servers at dist.battle.net. Sometimes you can download the Battle.net Installer from another region’s website. (Example, if you usually use Downloads – Blizzard Entertainment, you can try Downloads – Blizzard Entertainment)

If that doesn’t work, you can use a direct link below. Keep in mind that these posts we blues have aren’t updated over time. If you find this some time in the future, the links below may not work for you.

Windows Installer
Mac Installer PLEASE NOTE that due to a bug we are investigating, this will not work on Mac OS version 10.15.0 and later.

If these steps do not help you, please contact support for more help.
