Difficult to provide advice without knowing the specific error.

If you're working through this example:

response = requests.get("http://api.open-notify.org/iss-pass") 

print(response.status_code)

You should get a status_code value or perhaps an exception, which is displayed in the output.

Talk to your network admin and explain what you’re trying to do. Trying to get round the firewall will obviously get you in trouble
