I always start up Gentoo with these variables set system wide:

localhost m1_1sem # env | grep -i proxy
http_proxy=SERVER:3128
ftp_proxy=SERVER:3128
rsync_proxy=SERVER:3128
https_proxy=SERVER:3128

However, R seems to ignore them. I always had to put the necessary
variables in Renviron. I have just tried your method, but it also
failed. I double-checked the proxy server name, so I doubt the problem
is there.

There must be something else that blocks R from accessing the Internet.
