Hi Folks,

There seems to be a bug in the installation system:

Network error while downloading 'http://download.qt.io/online/qtsdkrepository/windows_x86/desktop/tools_vcredist/qt.tools.vcredist_msvc2015_x86/2017-02-01-0meta.7z': Connection timed out.

I am trying to do an update check with the latest installer !

@FreddoFrog Are you connected via Comcast by any chance? We have Qt development machines that connect via AWS (AS16509), Comcast (AS7922), and Level 3 (AS3549). For the past few days the Qt Maintenance Tool has been timing out via Comcast, but not the other two.

I am having the same issue from Australia.
Cannot use the maintenance tools (just sits forever when trying to update).

Also trying to go to download.qt.io in a browser just sits for ages and eventually times out so cannot even get the offline installer of 5.13.0

Rest of QT's pages seem to work ok including:
https://www.qt.io/offline-installers
just cannot download from any of the links.

@JW3153 download.qt.io does not work from Germany either. Guess something is broken.

Maintenance tool appears to be working again from Australia now and I can get to download.qt.io again without issue.

The problem might have passed now.
