I am trying to install Cygwin on a standard

Retried 3 times to no avail. The log file is

Can you reach <http://cygwin.com/mirrors.lst> from
your
browser? Are you using an FTP mirror? If so, try
an
HTTP mirror instead. Or try:
<http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/setup-2.513-alpha.exe>
Yes, I could reach <http://cygwin.com/mirrors.lst>
without
any problems.
I was using 'Direct Connection to the Internet'.
I fetched 'setup-2.513-alpha.exe' and it failed the
same way.
The log file is identical.
As things are not even getting to step 1, could there
be
something more fundamental at work -- such as
communication
problems?
That's what I suspect, yes. You mentioned that you're using
'Direct Connection to the Internet' for 'setup.exe'. Is that
the same method your browser uses to connect to the Internet?
