So far I have tried both on my own personal network, tethered to my cell phone and on the corporate network.

 

In all cases, I end up with the following error:

Seems to be an SSL issue?

Since you have just recently joined Einstein@Home on Sep 19, 2022, you should at least read this and maybe give an Update a try.  It could be that you were just a bit early for the switchover.

And since your computer(s) is(are) hidden, we can't see what version of BOINC you're running.

Hi everyone,

We changed our project's so-called "master-URL" to HTTPS (instead of HTTP) to further secure BOINC's initial communication with our project. Don't worry, even before this change the BOINC client communication was automatically upgraded to use HTTPS by our web server. This change now means this extra round-trip isn't required anymore so it will just slightly speed up the communication.

Please note that older clients might not recognize this change automatically if you're already attached to our project. In that case we recommend you update your BOINC client to a minimum version of 7.16.20. All BOINC versions starting with 7.16.20 support the automatic transition from HTTP to HTTPS on the next communication ("update") with the project's server.

Cheers,
Oliver

I am running the latest

I am running the latest version from BOINC's website 7.20.2

 

Cpid is the following: 1d979b03afdede4eea6fd56d27ac9769

 

Gave it another try just now and I am getting the same error with a few extra steps:
