SSRS 2008 R2 Bing Maps
When I try and use Report builder and Bing Maps Layer I get the below error message. I talked to my network guys and they said I am not being blocked. Any clue what my issue is?

Hi,
Do you receive the error when you run the report in Report Builder 3.0 or open the report in the Report Manager?
Generally, if the report cannot connect to the Bing Map server, the error message “The remote name could not be resolved: ‘dev.virtualearth.net’” will be
displayed on the map layer. Can you see the message?
If so, please check your LAN Settings of the server. For example, if you need to access the Internet through a proxy server in your company, please enable it by the following steps:
1.
Open the Internet Options of Internet Explorer.
2.
In the Connections tab, click the LAN settings button.
3.
Check the options in the Proxy server section and type in the Address and Port.
We can also configure the proxy server only for the Report Server. Please backup and open the web.config file of Report Server, and then add the following settings between </runtime>
and </configuration> node.
<system.net>
<defaultProxy enabled="true">
<proxy bypassonlocal="True" proxyaddress="http://<ProxyServer>:<port>" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
Thanks,
