Either you have a really slow connection or you have something in your network slowing it down, like for example a firewall that download and scans the download before giving it to you and in the mean time keeps your connection going at a slow rate.
Normally this works unless it takes that system longer than the configured timeout in the client software (I presume pacman in this case).
In case the download is cached retrying the command some time later might help.
But pacman has an option --disable-download-timeout which will probably do the trick (though the download may still take quite a while).
