Dropbox StaffDropbox does not have just a single IP address, and unfortunately because the Dropbox IPs are subject to change as servers are added and removed, or as maintenance occurs, we are unable to provide you with a list of our IPs. We recommend you rely on the host names *.dropbox.com and *.dropboxapi.com if possible.
I have opened the ports 17600, 17603 and 17500, as instructed by dropbox suggestion at https://help.dropbox.com/installs-integrations/desktop/configuring-firewall

I see your tests for pinging www.dropbox.com on ports 80 and 443 were successful.
Note that the ports 17600 and 17603 mentioned in that help article are only for specific Dropbox desktop client functionality. That's not relevant to using the Dropbox API. All Dropbox API calls require TLS, so they should all only be sent to port 443 on the Dropbox API servers.
