I completely uninstalled and reinstalled the program. The Check for Program Update hangs the program and gives me this error. I also noticed it hangs after the installer is finished for a while. Version 13.6 / Windows 10 22H2. Turned off Antivirus, Firewall, and Malwarebytes.

Checks fine for me. Try again, if it still does the same thing, it is likely in your environment

Just for fun I rebooted my ISP/Router. It works now. Maybe it was a bad DNS cache or something. That's just weird. Thank you for checking. I wasn't sure if it was just me.

This actually happened to me last night. Power in our area went out but my network equipment is on a UPS so it never turned off. Something got out of whack after my ISP infrastructure came back up because I was getting tons of random timeouts and 503s, which is weird because 503 is server-side. Rebooting the gateway fixed it for me similar to you, so I think your theory is in the right direction, something with routing tables gets messed up
