Hi MWCShopper, could you let us know more details on this matter?
Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?

I am using Mac OS 12.6.2. No VPN or virus software. No restrictions on router. Things were working great until about a 6 weeks ago I noticed my Dropbox app was not syncing and updating to the web folder and my Windows computer app. I did the complete erase and reinstall with the app trying to start-saying starting or message saying there was not an Internet connection, nor could not get the login screen to come up. I just was using the web to get past the holidays. I noticed there was an update to the Dropbox app and downloaded and installed vs 164.4.7914. Right after the install the login screen actually came up, but after entering username and password, then back to the starting and no Internet message.

Hey MWCShopper, are you using a free Dropbox account?
If so, is it possible that you've exceeded the limit of 3 connected devices on your account that's why you're having this issue?
You can see all your connected devices at the bottom of this page.
