It has been a while since Visual Studio 2012 (with Update 3 currently) reminded me of updates to installed extensions. To see what's going on, today I tried to check for updates manually and was greeted with an error. VS could not check for updates nor connect to online gallery.
The problem was semi-resolved by adjustments to devenv.exe.config file in Common7/IDE directory. (source). In addition to the setting for servicePointManager, I also enabled the defaultProxy. Below are the settings that made the automatic update work again.
<configuration>
<system.net>
<defaultProxy enabled="true" />
<settings>
<servicePointManager expect100Continue="false" />
</settings>
</system.net>
</configuration>
