4 years agoHey rogerky72, sorry to jump in here, but could you try rebooting your modem and computer and try again?
If you still get the same results, I'd appreciate a screenshot of the exact error you're getting.

Can anyone help with the error below? The internet is working fine on all other devices.

Hi ashleywchism, have you tried using another browser when uploading files to see if the issue occurs again?
Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?

Is this fixed? I have been trying to do this for over 10 days and have been unable to upload a file with the same issue every single time. This is very frustrating and what poor customer service to see so many of us are having the same issue and nothing is being done.
The message continues to pop up, no matter the browser or how many times I check and reboot "You seem to be having internet issues. Hang tight and we’ll resume your upload once you reconnect." that is not the case. I would like this issue fixed or an update asap.
