Do you have the root CA server certs installed on your server, and are you downloading using products which support those certs and HSTS? > Networking is fine, no firewall on our end.

I am sure there are firewalls between your server, the rest of the datacentre, and the internet, for the vendor's protection, if not yours. There are few files you may download directly from https://cygwin.com e.g. setup-x86{,_64}.exe and detached .sig files. Try those first. For the packages, you must go to a Cygwin public mirror site. Can you download packages from public Cygwin mirrors? If everything else works okay, you can try to contact Cygwin site operations sourcemaster [at] sourceware [dot] org to see if, and reasons why, they may be blocking your server from accessing https://cygwin.com. You may want to get your vendor to contact them to resolve any issues. -- Take care.
