I took your advice
I modified /etc/apt/sources.list adding in the head
'deb http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/archive.raspbian.org/raspbian'
(University of Kent) as indicated on the site you gave me

Unfortunately the result is this:
E: Malformed line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
E: The list of sources could not be read.

Do you have advice?
Maybe it should be written differently and not like I did with copy and
paste ?
Sorry but I have little experience with linux
Thank you

CLARIFICATIONS
I am now in the house where I have the RPI3 with 404 errors and
speedtest-cli with zero upload ....
Before leaving I took the SD of this RPI3 that I had cloned 1 year ago
and updated it at home where I have internet with FTTC.
The update, as mentioned in my previous posts, was successful so when I
arrived here I replaced the SD in the RPI3 which has problems.
But the 404 errors and zero download with speedtest-cli remained
Everything else works (in the 4G LAN I have video surveillance,
intrusion detection, temperature detection with RPI, UPS APD management
with RPI, etc. .....)
