You need to go into System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager -> Settings -> Preferences -> Network and configure proxy for your machine.

It didn't work for me, do you have any more suggestions? I got everything configured! Network Proxy, the updater's proxy, etc.
Can the problem be in my authorization login? It has a backslash in it?
