Please review this link: https://opensource.com/life/16/10/ho...ical-questions

You should include the command you use to try to download.

127.0.0.1 is defined as the loopback address, which means it is only looking on your computer, so the command or other details about your network situation are unknown where people here cannot help you without further information. Start with what distribution or OS you have and what command you've tried to use to download.

OP: Kali is best run as a VM and not installed. When run as a VM, it is very easy to deal with. Kali pre-built VM images are available here: https://www.kali.org/get-kali/#kali-virtual-machines
