I cannot download from this link https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.4-all.zip in Firefox and Chrome in my Ubuntu 15.10. Actually, I faced this problem in Android Studio while opening a project. Android Studio was trying to download this zip file and failed. Then I tried it manually in my browsers and failed. I set proxy settings to no proxy in all areas, Android Studio, Firefox, and Chrome. Then I restarted all those, all in vain. I tried this link in Windows 7 and succeeded. What is going on? I cannot see anything but problems with OS, I dare say.

Edit:
wget result from terminal follows

enter image description here

    No problems here. I am missing something in your question though: any errors? Did you try with "wget" from command line to see if the source errors out?

Port 443 is blocked, that's why you can't download files on https connections.

Run this command to allow 443 on TCP : 

sudo ufw allow 443/tcp
