I don’t see any attempts from that IP to hit Snort.org in the past 72 hours.  So it looks like you are being blocked 
well before hitting our web server.  Do you a proxy in the way?

Thanks for your reply. My pfSense router gets a dynamic IPv4 address from the ISP. The current IP address is 
103.208.71.114. A recent update failed today at 12:10 pm or 6:40 am GMT (my local time zone is GMT +5:30). 
 
This is the current log entry from the update attempt:

Hello,
 
I use Snort on pfSense 2.4.5 and noticed the Snort subscriber updates fail to install. Snort has been set to update 
every 12 hours at 10 minutes past the hour. Is there a geo-block on the update server? My ISP is Tata-Sky based out 
of Mumbai, India. The log entries show “Server returned error code 0”:
