Android Studio Update Fails

Question

Just got the new Android Studio but it won't connect for updates. When I go to Help>Check for Updates... I get a pop-up sayin:

Connection failed. Please check your network connection and try again.

• I tried changing my network settings around (Static/DHCP).
• I tried "Auto-Detect Proxy settings".
• I tried Adding "studio.exe" to my inbound/outbound rules of windows firewall, I also have "Java(TM) Platform SE binary" added (The VM running Idea).
• I tried looking around my hosts file to see if I messed something up in there.

I run normal IDEA and my updates connect, but obviously tells me there is no new updates. Has anyone else run into this problem or found a solution to this? My colleagues at work here did not have this problem at all, only the "JAVA_HOME" issue on one of my colleagues' machines.
