Attempted to download the Windows 64-bit executable for Postman directly via Firefox, Edge, and Chrome while in South Africa (ZA) (Download Postman | Get Started for Free). The download failed across all browsers. Reattempted after a few days using Firefox, but the issue persisted. After researching user-reported issues, I tried downloading via an EU proxy, which succeeded without any problems.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Attempt to download the Windows 64-bit Postman installer from the official site while located in South Africa.
- Observe that the download fails across multiple browsers.
- Use a proxy server based in the EU.
- Observe that the download completes successfully.
Expected Behaviour:
The download should complete without requiring a proxy.
Actual Behaviour:
Downloads fail if downloading from South Africa (ZA) (not sure about other domains)
Additional Notes:
- The issue appears to be location-specific (ZA).
- No error messages provided during the download attempts.
