After approved access to the repo and installing the huggingface-cli I tried :
( Copied this from the repo:meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct · Hugging Face)

huggingface-cli download meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct --include “original/*” --local-dir Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct

got an error:

An error happened while trying to locate the file on the Hub and we cannot find the requested files in the local cache. Please check your connection and try again or make sure your Internet connection is on.

My internet connection is ok.
