From other geographic locations I can connect to the dropbox service and get to
their https web page, but from my home connection I can't, unless I vpn around
the issue.
downforeveryoneorjustme says it's just me, but they're located someplace else
geographically, and I don't know if they check the https site.
http://www.dropbox.com immediately redirects to https://www.dropbox.com
It seems like a transport issue.
Is there any tools for checking where an https connection is failing, like a
traceroute for https?
I'm not sure if the traceroute results are indicative but here it is
Macintosh-2:~ gregihnen$ traceroute dropbox.com
