This is LC 9.6.9 (tsNet version 1.4.9 Business Edition) I don’t actually think this is a tsNet issue since I had previously been using “load URL” syntax and that failed on android as well.

Your constant uses "https" but the error message says "http"?
That's weird.
Have you tried using 192.99.207.157 instead? That should eliminate dns 
as a variable.
