spaCy: Cannot download models (like en_core_web_sm)

Internet connection is good but cannot download

I am in Mongolia and cannot download any of the models from command line using:

python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm

and error follows:

and it is same using browser https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/tag/en_core_web_sm-2.2.5

I checked my internet connection and other stuff working well. So I thought it is not because of my machine.

There are other closed issues similar to this one but none of them actually solved in terms of internet connection error.

How can I fix this?

My Environment

* Operating System: MacOS
* Python Version Used: 3.7.4
* spaCy Version Used: 2.2.4
* Environment Information: pip virtualenv

[update] I also tried it in other environments but no difference: Tried a new machine with:

* Operating System: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
* Python Version Used: 3.6.9
* spaCy Version Used: 2.2.4
* Environment Information: pip virtualenv

• I tried the whole new environment but still getting the same error
• --time-out addition in command line also did not work
• used different machine but did not work too
