The firmware file is corrupted. This would indicate that you're internet connection is crap, especially when the file downloaded and transfered onto USB was corrupt as well.

Just because you've got a high speed connection, doesn't mean you won't have high latency or ping. High latency and ping results in your connection being crap. Simple as. If you're having to try several times, then issue is defintely on your end.
