We have a few clients that connect to update from Sophos as their primary (and sole) location. The system is connected to the Internet and the connection to Sophos is not being blocked.
When doing so, the update fails with "Could Not Conact Server". This only started a few months ago, here is a snippet of the log when I try to perform a manual update:
