I've just received some news that I'd like to share with you all here!
It appears that ESET has fixed the problem that was causing this error.

Once you've done this, you should be fine to revert back to the latest stable version of the Dropbox desktop app. You can install this from here.
Otherwise, you can just allow the app to auto-update to the latest stable when a new version is released.
Let me know how it goes!

Having the same issue since 111.4.472 on Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64
Until yesterday everything worked just fine, but today I can't connect to DB although my time settings are correct and my Firewall is set to allow everything from Dropbox. I even temporarily disabled my Firewall (ESET Internet Security 14.0.22.0) without any change.
I'm gonna search for an offline installer of a previous version now until this issue will get fixed.

Until next restart (which will take a while since I mostly use hibernation mode) Dropbox may work as before.
This may be one possible attempt to use DB until the issue gets fixed. Hope it helps.
