RDi 9.6 & iSphere 3.1.2.r --> won't update IBM i library

Hi,

Finally able to download RDI 9.6 today! <WooHoo!!!>

Just having problems updating iSphere. Installing the plug-in (3.1.2.r) , was no problem!
http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/

But, I seem to be having problems updating the iSphere library on the IBM I by doing this:

windows>preferences>iSphere>Updates

Then I click on the "Search for updates" for iSPhere. This is where I get "Failed to connect to iSphere update server."
