Additionally, what versions are you attempting to use? The Designer Launcher in 8.1.7 now goes directly to `/StatusPing` for checking the connection where it previously hit `/main/StatusPing` and the redirect from the gateway tried to redirect to HTTP and was thusly rejected due to downgrade. See this thread for reference: [Hard coded request for HTTP in Designer Launcher even if gateway set up for HTTPS - #11 by kcollins1](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/hard-coded-request-for-http-in-designer-launcher-even-if-gateway-set-up-for-https/34027/11)

The feature @jspecht references will definitely help smooth the experience out and address some of the other issues (related to client IP reporting).
