Research direction

The report concerns access to https://notepad-plus-plus.org and the updater, but names no repository file or test. First verify whether the timeout is reproducible and specific to the reporter’s IP, using the screenshot and Notepad++ v8.4.9 debug information as evidence. Done would require a confirmed repository-side cause and a defined fix.
