Asset Store Connection timed out with proxy
hey guys,
Im using Unity 5.3 in Windows 10.
Im having the following problem:
I cant download any asset from the Asset store. I can login, connect to the Asset store and even buy assets. when i try to download any asset i get " Error: Connection timed out" .
Yes im behind proxy, but when i set the env variables (HTTP_proxy ) i cant even login eventhough im sure is the correct one ( i use it for git and it works )

i found a solution for this problem. if somebody else has it just copy and paste the env variable as HTTPS_proxy too and reload unity.
Hi I also have the problem. Could you please describe your solution a little more detailed? Where does the copy and paste happen?
Thanks j

Reference: http://blog.gfx47.com/2011/03/08/unity3d-httphttps-proxy-problem-solved-o
Tried & tested 2 solutions to this:
1) R-Click: MyComputer -> Properties -> Advanced System Settings -> Advanced(Tab) -> Envrionment Variables - User variables(recomended) -> New... (VariableName = HTTP_PROXY, VariableValue = http://MyUserName%40login.domain.com:MyPassword123@myProxyOrIP.com:8080) - Create another variable HTTPS_PROXY with the same value - Reload Unity
2) Create a batch file: (Very good especially if you have no admin rights) set HTTP_PROXY=http://MyUserName%40login.domain.com:MyPassword123@myProxyOrIP.com:8080 set HTTPS_PROXY=http://MyUserName%40login.domain.com:MyPassword123@myProxyOrIP.com:8080 start D:\MyInstallPath\Editor\Unity.exe

Well, I dont know if you still want to know but I fix it by allowing Unity in the windows firewall. If you dont know how to do it you can follow the method 1 in this guide :)
