Actually,I can open gerrit website in my web browser. And I have tried to 
change the http.postBuffer, http.lowSpeedLimit, http.lowSpeedTime of git to 
rational value. Unfortunately, they were not working.

I have also tried using "git clone https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo", 
same as before.
