Hey,

> I am coming from behind an institutional proxy so wondered if this might be a factor.
Assuming you have the needed api key set correctly (the Google Maps one if you are using any Google Maps maps without explicitly specifying any geoservice), it's indeed probably the proxy you mention. I don't think there is a lot that can be done from the extensions side to solve such issues.

Cheers
