This test with a 512 MB file works for me in .Net Core 3.1 =>

At begining :

using System.Net;

Then :

        using (WebClient wc = new WebClient())
        {
            wc.Headers.Add("User-Agent: Test");
            wc.DownloadFile("http://ipv4.download.thinkbroadband.com/512MB.zip", "e:\\512MB.zip");
        }
