I usually pull from the US, and have no trouble. Since traveling to Singapore, my pull requests usually fail (see below).I’ve tried different WLANs, but that didn’t improve the problem. Some days are better than others, but its now been several days since I was able to make a successful pull.

It might be a bad proxy:

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/pipermail/mercurial/2015-March/048195.html

Forgive the naive question, but could squid be used to overcome the problem?

Or do I need to circumvent the proxy?

I check http://www.whatismyproxy.com<http://www.whatismyproxy.com/>

No proxies were detected..

Ben

I had a successful pull today.
