Proxy to server connection problem

OK guys and girls I would like to tap in to your knowledge about this:

Currently visiting in FL.
Same as from home where I live I am connected to the net by using this Laptop which has a proxy installed on it.

Here in the US I am using an aircard in the lap top which connects it to a server which is owned by a friend of mine.

@ home we have satellite internet only which is routed to my Laptop by a wireless signal from a near by hotel.

No matter where I am located (USA or not) this laptop with the proxy on it ALWAYS connects to the same server which again is owned by a close friend.

No matter where I am and how the laptop gets its signal (wireless, aircard, WiFi) I am ALWAYS connected through the previously mentioned server, this has always been working pretty much flawlessly.

So now last night while I am staying @ this private clinic although my friends server was NOT down I was unable to connect to his server.
I NEVER connect to the net not using the proxy installed on this Laptop.

So does someone have an idea why I was unable to connect to my friends server as I usually do?

I re-started the Laptop a few times and looked within the settings (but did not change anything) and after about an hour all was fine again.
And no the proxy was not down, neither.
