Which site can I download Cygwin?

Choose a download site. "http://mirrors.kernel.org" is a good choice. "http://cygwin.mirrors.hoobly.com" is another good one, in Pennsyvania.

How do I download in Cygwin?

You can install it from the Cygwin setup.exe install program. When you get to the "Select Packages" screen, expand the "Devel" section, find the make package, and select the version you want by clicking the weird circle/arrow thing on that line until your desired version is shown.

I had the same issue. i changed my setting in "Select Your Internet Connection" to "Use Internet Explorer Proxy" instead of "Direct Connection".It worked like a charm. I guess the issue is due to the proxy layer at work.

Just go to website https://cygwin.com/mirrors.html

Chose the mirror web address nearest to you by clicking right and select the option "SAVE LINK ADDRESS" from the menu.

Paste it into the "USER URL" then click "ADD" and press "NEXT". Hope it will work. Good Luck.......!
