If you have an example or if you go into option 6 what do you get? Here's what I got,
ftp.software.ibm.com EZA1554I Connecting to: ftp-www3-software.southdata.ibm.com 170.225.126.17 port : 21. EZA2590E connect error from initIPv4Connection - EDC8127I Connection timed out. (errno2=0x00000000) Seems like either we are blocking port 21 or IBM has it blocked.

I just re-downloaded it from "ftp.software.ibm.com" directly to the mainframe, and it worked fine. You do not perhaps have this blocked on your firewall? I know there were some FTP address changes announced by IBm a few months ago - I went to our network/firewall person and asked to open this up.
