Hi,

I'm trying to use calibre at work, behind a firewall.

Whenever I try to download metadata (or access somethings such as a goodreads plugin), it times out - saying no connection.

I'm guessing its a port issue. If I know how the data is being routed, I can feed it through a SSH tunnel to my home PC - but doing this with 80 and 8080 hasn't solved the issue yet.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
