Failed to connect to cibersortx.stanford.edu:80: Connection timed out

I have an error that is probably related to proxy settings as the problem disappears when I connect with a private network. I've already set the proxy settings in Rprofile and in env variables. I tried multiple things with no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

EcoTyper uses CIBERSORTx for the first two steps of the workflow, fraction estimation and in silico purification. In order for CIBERSORTx to run, it needs to be able to connect to the website to check the tokens. It seems that due to network configuration issues on your system, it cannot perform this validation. Unfortunately, we cannot help with this. We would suggest to contact your local network administrator. If the settings are correct, and you are still encountering issues, please contact the CIBERSORTx team: https://cibersortx.stanford.edu/contact.php.

Best, The EcoTyper team
