After around 50 times of "Unexpected error" "196620:206" when trying to download my games from within Origin, it finally started to download "Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge" (it's free right now 😀).
It is downloading with a speed of around 10-20 KB/s so it will take quite a while to finish, and the reason for this slow speed (and for the high amount of retries required for the download to begin) seems to be the server rejecting the connection request.
In Origin's logfile (~/.cxoffice/<bottle>/drive_c/users/Public/Application Data/Origin/Logs/Client_Log.txt) there's some information.
The case where the download is rejected:

This was eventually resolved by just retrying enough times.
The case of the slow download:
A lot of these messages:
**2031 Sep 25 20:21:16.868 Error Origin::Downloader::DownloadWorker::onError 114 [ID:Origin.OFR.50.0001094] Received error from the http channel: The remote server closed the download session connection prematurely with code [206]
These two after around 6-7 of the above messages:
**2036 Sep 25 20:21:25.243 Error Origin::Downloader::ContentProtocolPackage::onDownloadRequestError 143 [Game Title: Command & Conquer Red Alert™ 2 and Yuri’s Revenge™][ProductID:Origin.OFR.50.0001094]Request error: __Installer/directx/redist/DEC2006_XACT_x64.cab Error: The remote server closed the download session connection prematurely

And after some time of the above messages appearing in the log finally this:
2048 Sep 25 20:22:35.408 Event RosterHandler::IncomingPresenceChanged 140 Jingle contact presence changed
2049 Sep 25 20:23:21.407 Event RosterHandler::IncomingPresenceChanged 140 Jingle contact presence changed
This makes the download stall.
Can anyone make sense of this? To me it seems to be some kind of authentication/establishing connection failure.
Could it be related to some proprietary Windows communication system that Origin uses, but hasn't been implemented in WINE yet?
I can't see any WINE related errormessages when executing this command from commandline using /opt/cxoffice/bin/wine.
Haven't tried "Run Command" with debug options yet, but I don't know if that will help at all.
