eTrade API - Downloaded Sample Error: onnectionResetError: [WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

Question

I hope someone can give me a hand here. I am new to python programming, and I downloaded the eTrade API sample and trying to get it to run and I am getting this error. I have alos tried this in C# and VB.NET with no luck.

Exception has occurred: ConnectionError
('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None))
ConnectionResetError: [WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

urllib3.exceptions.ProtocolError: ('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None))

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I have googled, chatGPT, and everything I can think of to find a solution.
