You are not connected to the internet, as well your legacy connection seems to be firewalled / filtered as well !

You can check with rsync if your connection is ok by enter rsync:

rsync rsync://feed.community.greenbone.net

Thanks Lukas
I double check the IPS settings and currently it works with the feed update.
I will check later if that was the reason but it looks like it is.
