Looks like the SuSE proxy has been set up (& can't be found). Do you use one where you are, or should it be disabled now?
I have had no probelms updating over my routed dialup network, using ftp/http - the German servers even worked, initially.
Good Luck - did the 20MB kernal upgrade to 2.6.5-.. over the weekend - painless :-)
Cheers

Well I successfully installed SUSE 9.1 on a test laptop via ftp and the jetstreamgames realm.
I am quite impressed so far but I am currently frustrated at work because I have not yet found a way to do the online updates (YOU - Yast Online Updates) without getting a 407 proxy authentication error.
I have followed the advice below to no avail. Any idea anyone?
The YaST2 Online Update (YOU) needs a direct connection to the Internet. If
you connect via a proxy, this must be configured first:
* Open /etc/wgetrc with an editor of your choice. * Enter this line: * http_proxy = http://your_proxy:port/
your_proxy stands for the name of your proxy machine and port is the port
number to which the proxy listens on the proxy machine. In case you need to authenticate against your proxy, insert user name and
password in /etc/wgetrc, too: proxy_user=user
proxy_passwd=password
