Every time I try and update my iphone 4 to ios 7.1 in iTunes 11.1.5 it says "connection reset" even when there is no problem with my connection

I have an iPhone 4. I use iTunes 11.1.5 on my Mac. I am trying to update to ios 7.1 through iTunes, but every time I do that, I get a "connection reset" error, even when I know there has been no problem with my connection.
The exact error message is as follows:
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "Anne's iPhone". The network connection was reset.
Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."
I have checked several times. There is no problem with the connection, and I have tried to download the software several times today.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

Just managed to successfully download the update, having retried five or six times. I did unplug my phone while the download was taking place (had asked iTunes to download only, not to update) -- suspect this had no bearing on it whatsoever, and that persistence is the only way here.
