The home feed is for use on home networks, not commercial networks.

When the Nessus Client connects to the Nessus scanner, it does not
cause the Nessus scanner to perform a plugin update. There is a separate
schedule for this which you can configure in the Nessus Server Configuration
GUI, or you can force a plugin update.

It is also possible that something changed on your network such as the
requirement of using a web proxy.
