Is there a FreeBSD equivalient of WGET?

Question

I'm using telnet to remote into a local FreeBSD server and I need to transfer a file to the server so I can unpack and install it, however I'm unsure on how to get the file onto the server.

Is there a program installed by default with FreeBSD that has the equivalent abilities of **WGET**?

For an outdated system that can not update with pkg commands to obtain a port of `wget`, luckily **fetch** is built in to the FreeBSD system. Here is an example using `fetch` to download a file:

```
fetch https://www.domain.tld/file.ext
```
