Ah, additional details. Thanks! The download is started. Running REALLY slow (like 24kb per second!) but it is running. I am not in a big hurry.

Hmmmm..... I thought I was already on stream, but apparently not. /etc/redhat-release says it is not stream.
I looked for a method to upgrade. Found some notes at techrepublic. The first step is to install centos-release-stream, which fails. So what is the method for doing an upgrade?
I gave you the link for the official way of doing it:
Click on the "CentOS Stream" purple bit at the top, then on the '8' purple bit. Then scroll down to "Converting from CentOS Linux 8 to CentOS Stream 8". If your machine hasn't been updated for a while, you might need to add '--allowerasing' to the comand line to swap the distros.
If it doesn't work, then please let the list know any error messages so someone can help you.
