I am trying to setup Laravel homestead on a windows machine according to the documentation here: http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/homestead#installation-and-setup.
However when I get to the 'Launch The Vagrant Box' step I get the following error when I try to 'vagrant up' from cmd:

If I use Cygwin to 'Vagrant up' instead I get this error:
$ vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Box 'laravel/homestead' could not be found. Attempting to find and install...
default: Box Provider: virtualbox
default: Box Version: >= 0
The box 'laravel/homestead' could not be found or
could not be accessed in the remote catalog. If this is a private
box on HashiCorp's Atlas, please verify you're logged in via
`vagrant login`. Also, please double-check the name. The expanded
URL and error message are shown below:
URL: ["https://atlas.hashicorp.com/laravel/homestead"]
Error: Could not resolve host: (nil); Host not found
Should I be using Cygwin or cmd?
How can I fix these errors? I ran'Vagrant box' successfully in cmd (pointing to a local .box file as I am behind a proxy), should I have run it in Cygwin instead?
Edit:
Okay, so If i replace '~' with 'C:/Users/[username]/' that brings running it in cmd inline with running it in Cygwin, so the now both give the same error.
The issue was I had used
vagrant box add laravel [location]
rather than
vagrant box add laravel/homestead [location]
