On-premises data gateway Sign-In issue

While signing in to the on-premises data gateway, we get the below error

 

Network request returned unexpected error.
An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host
at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.EndReceive(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.EndRead(IAsyncResult asyncResult)

Yes, we did have internet access. However, some of the PowerBI URLs were being blocked by the firewall. That resolved the issue we were running into.

Hi there

Are you able to connect to the internet from the PC where you have got the Gateway installed?

Also do you have the latest version installed?
