Can't install Unity 6000.0.34f1 from Hub

Whenever I try and install Unity 6000.0.34f1 with hub 3.11.0, it continually fails in download/install of various elements. Get errors like:

Download failed: validation failed
Download failed: connection ETIMEDOUT

I retry and sometimes some elements will work after that but not all.

Check the Hub log file for detailed error logs (post it here).

Your Internet connection is stable? Any non-Windows firewall or proxy that may interfere?

My network is okay and I only have the builtin windows virus checker/
I tried downloading without any extra modules and managed to do that. Then when I try and add android module I see errors like this:

download it from the download archive, and install it… it will be fine

Sadly I can’t seem to do that either. I install unity from the archive but am unable to install all the extras for building android apps. I choose the manual installer for windows and add support for android, but when I go to the editor preferences, none of the paths for the android tools exist.

I tried it on 2 different machines and get the same error. The only thing they have in common is the network. Not really sure how this could be the problem. It’s been working fine for over a year. The network is shared from a phone.

as long as you installed the adons (download them from the archive) you can always put the paths in…

I did the following:
1.went here Unity 6000.0.34 and installed the manual install for window, selecting all the android components
2.Ran installed unity, found paths didnt exist
3.installed windows android build support from same page
4.Ran unity again, found once more that paths didnt exist.

did you manually install the downloaded android https://download.unity3d.com/download_unity/5ab2d9ed9190/TargetSupportInstaller/UnitySetup-Android-Support-for-Editor-6000.0.34f1.exe ?? or just windows? you said you selected android, but did you install the andriod support? it also normally downloads a copy of the sdk etc too, which I don tthink is on those lists…

Seems like the problem was to do with my internet connection. I was sharing internet from a phone. I switched it to 4g from 5g and now everything seems fine. Must be that I was getting patchy connection with the 5g.
