Dear all, 

 

When I tried to update, there is an error: 

 

Can’t connect to the Altera web site to check for updates – check your internet connection and/or browser settings.  

 

Had check for the internet connectivity -> web browser -> ok. 

 

Firewall had exception of quartus.exe, does anyone know the port number used and the protocol(either TCP or UDP) when the programs checks for updates? 

 

Thanks in advance for helping 

Best regards 

Charley

Problem solved. I normally use Firefox but I brought up Internet Explorer and went to tools->Internet Options->Connections->Lan settings and found the proxy server enabled. Unchecking this item made everything work. Firefox was written cleverly enough to ignore IE's settings. J
