Hello

Braille terminal at the settings makes the had cusor to follow the arrow keys so it is easier to find where the focus is. Tab also moves to the next link or field. Try to enable the braille terminal to see if it hels.

I tried downloading a file from a website using links and couldn't
download the file.
Using speakup I was able to cursor onto the desired file or that's what
speakup told me.
However when I tried to download that file I got offered an image file
from another cursor location on the screen I did not want.
I think this is more of a links problem than a speakup problem and am
wondering if it's possible to configure links in some way to clear this
problem.
I don't know what the braille setting would have bought me since I have no
braille display.
As things stand, I had more success with wget and a bash script I wrote.
For that reason I'm going to share this one with the list.
The script could probably be improved by adding a site variable to the
download variable for wget to process but I haven't done that yet.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# file: s3.sh - gentoo stage3 download script
download="stage3-amd64-20201001T120249Z.tar.xz"
wget -bc https://bouncer.gentoo.org/fetch/root/all/releases/amd64/autobuilds/current-stage3-amd64/$download
