Hi Jacque,
Any of those error codes (6, 7 or 35) are reasonable if you are
operating in an area with a really poor connection.
When you are operating on a public wifi, it could have a lot to do with
how the wifi is configured, as Bob mentioned below. How these are
configured can vary greatly.
Depending on how far you want to go with testing, you could try see if
your app can communicate with other sites when at these coffee shops.
Does it only have trouble with HTTPS sites, or just certain sites? If
you browse to a site first with Chrome, does your app then work
afterwards? Does it have trouble if you try connect via the IP address
rather than the hostname?
Cheers,
Charles

Okay, so three of us have been running around for a couple of days
trying to find "bad" internet connections. Sometimes we walk to the
limits of our router until we barely get a connection, and we get curl
error 35. At some coffee shops with a solid connection we get error 6,
once error 7. Sometimes Slack works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes
we don't have any problems at all on public wifi.
I think this is out of our control.

That is interesting. Coffe Shops/Public Wifi typically use a proxy
server and that may be what is restricting your DNS resolution. And
yeah it could definitely be a router issue as well. Sometimes I have
to reboot the router at work. No rhyme or reason, it just stops
passing traffic and I have to reset it. Wireless is black magic
voodoo anyways.

In today's episode, the user was in a coffee house using the free
wifi (it was one of my testers, there on purpose for testing). The
app could not resolve the host though the connection would have been
constant.
When he tests from his own home everything works, as it does for all
of us on the team.
We're wondering if https has anything to do with it. He could
connect to anything with Chrome but both my app and Slack would not
work using https. Could that be a factor?
We need to keep testing to see if https is really the cause, we're
not quite sure yet.
