Yes, when I set it to automatic I get error: Other HTTP error. When set to manual, I get server is down. Are there any special ports that need to be open. It seems to be using 80 all the time, except once I swear it said 8001. When I test either settings connection, it always says Proxy settings are correct. For manual update, do you mean go the the web site and DL. I have done that & it works. If you mean click on the lighening bolt shape on the skin, that is what is giving me the errors.
