Can't download Windows spupport software because of a network problem?

Hi all,

Here is my question: I have MBP early 2011 and was trying to download Windows supporting software’s using Bootcamp 5.0 but a box appears saying “Can't download Windows support software because of a network problem” so what can I do to address this problem?

Few more details:

Mountain Lion 10.8.2

Bootcamp 5.0.0

I already tried removing the proxy settings as you can see on the following picture.

Thanks

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), Bootcamp 5.0

I tried to select and deselect the Passive FTP Mode to see if that helps as it is recommended by other users before posting my question here to see if that was the problem but that didn't change anytihing. I also tried it before commenting to your response if there was any change and there wasn't any

But thanks for your response.
