Why does bundler always fail on my University's network?

Question

When I try bundle install in my University I always get:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/remote_fetcher.rb:239:in `rescue in
fetch_path': SocketError: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known     
(http://rubygems.org/quick/Marshal.4.8/kgio-2.8.0.gemspec.rz) (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)

I hear the similar problems from other fellow students particularly when they are trying to install sqlite.

definitely a connection issue. probably firewall settings or something. — Mike Campbell, May 03 '13 at 18:27
Perhaps you need to use a proxy: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3877055/how-to-use-bundler-behind-a-proxy — Daniel Rikowski, Aug 01 '14 at 09:45

I had some similar problems at my university. If your university has a VPN you can connect to, as well as their wireless internet, I would try connecting to that and then try "bundle install" again.
