Google Cloud Installation: Hostname Unresolved

Okay, feel really dumb as I can't even install Google Cloud SDK. Started using command line and then moved to the installer. I got a "Download Failed:Resolving Hostname" Error. There seems to be nothing in the guides and any youtube videos say it installs easily - just keep clicking next?!?

Why am I being asked to set up a network proxy?

I'm using VPN? Could that be the issue?

Thanks in advance
