Hi Eugene,

thank you for your time - really appreciate it!

Of course I gave your suggestion a try, even though I was shure it would
not make a difference: I have described the situation right now at home
- but the very same behaviour could be reported while being in a hotel
using their WLAN.

SUDO-settings:
%wheel  ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: SETENV: ALL
(this is not a server but my personal laptop to this seems to be OK)

~ $ cat .profile | grep proxy

export http_proxy=http://192.168.178.23:3128
export  ftp_proxy=http://192.168.178.23:3128


~ $ sudo pkg_add -ui

Boooom! Connection lost again.
(As I had a 'pkg_add'-run before we reached letter 'h' this time...)

I think 'ftp_proxy' can be ruled out.

Nevertheless it was worth trying.

Thank you and have a nice day!

STEFAN
