    The Dropbox API servers should no longer be requiring SNI. Please try again and let me know if you're still seeing any issues. Thanks!

I see, thanks for the information. Do you know if your HTTPS client does or doesn't support SNI? HTTPS clients should handle that automatically, but if this one doesn't, that might be the cause here.

The Texas Instruments CC3200 does not support SNI.  These systems worked flawlessly on Wednesday.  Has Server Name Indication become a requirement since then?

    Thanks for confirming that. Yes, the Dropbox API servers do now require SNI. I'm raising this with the team. I'll follow up here once I have an update on that.

      Hardware support is required for this and the CC3200 will never be able to support this.  So, any help would be greatly appreciated.
