Using http://ftp.opensuse.org/ works as expected for me - even
http://download.opensuse.org/. 

Trying ftp:// instead of http:// does not work, as we do not provide any FTP
server any longer. 
FYI: the FTP protocol does not allow redirections, so every request has to be
handled by the server itself leading into bandwith problems.  

But we have a huge list of mirror servers providing access to our tree via FTP.
Please have a look at 

  http://mirrors.opensuse.org/

to choose the one near your location. We also redirect users from
http://download.opensuse.org to mirrors with FTP servers (ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de
for example), if the users client allows this.

So closing as fixed now as the initial report is fixed.
