Use aria2c instead:

aria2c --check-integrity=true \
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.6/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.6-DVD-x86_64-Current.iso


or

aria2c --check-integrity=true \
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.6/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.6-DVD-x86_64-Build669.1-Media.iso


That will take care of verification, and download at top speed using several mirrors \
if appropriate

If aria2c is not found, install it.

It amazes me that people still do not use aria2c for downloading the iso, after so \
many years, and then complain about bad repos or bad images or bad downloads ;-p
