Per https://p0w3rsh3ll.wordpress.com/2014/10/09/fix-the-infamous-0x800f0906-or-the-source-files-could-not-be-downloaded-error/

This can be reproduced on systems which have the 2966827/2966828 updates installed as per the article, by using windowsfeature to install Web-Webserver with installsubfeatures => true.

The workaround is to specify individual features for the role, however it's worth flagging to avoid unnecessary troubleshooting.

This was due to the source parameter not actually being passed properly. For Windows 2012 R2, you need to point source => '\\someserver\os\2012R2\sxs' for example, but the source parameter in 2.1.0 is not being passed. There are changes since that release which fix the issue. I am using #85 currently without issue.

Closing this see i don't see how this is issue with the module.
