Hey @letterdrop, welcome to the community! I am sorry to hear you are running into this issue and happy to help. Are these errors happening in Docker or your local machine?

Thanks @letterdrop for jumping on a Zoom call today. Through the call, we found that there is a rather interesting edge case with our CLI where any network request made on a Mac connected to a Google WiFi router will timeout. We were able to patch the issue by configuring @letterdrop’s DNS settings on his Mac to `8.8.8.8`.

Our team will look into coming up with a long-term solution to this edge case and publish an update when it is available. We will also update our documentation in the meantime.
