I've just checked: cygwin.com and www.cygwin.com only have DNS A
records, no AAAA records, so there's no way to get the installer (or
indeed anything else) from cygwin.com if you're on an IPv6-only network.
Fixing this will require setting up the web servers for cygwin.com to be
accessible over IPv6, and configuring the corresponding IPv6 addresses
in the domain's DNS records.
