Are you sure it doesn't work, just because the progress bar doesn't move, and sometimes even when the clouds don't move the client is still downloading.
Some Server send you much data e.g. 80MB but don't have the fastest connection, so it can take a while (e.g. 15min).
Get a program with which you can monitor you network traffic (preferable per applications) and look if it still downloads when the program / minetest looks locked.
