 * [@jesslucyg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jesslucyg/) Hopefully we can
   assist you with this error. Can you let me know of the following:
    – Your site
   URL – At what stage you see this error – Confirm whether you’ve followed the “
   Fix Common Issues” steps on the [plugins website|?](https://sitekit.withgoogle.com/documentation/fix-common-issues/).
 * Once you let me know of the above I should be able to assist further.

 * [@jesslucyg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jesslucyg/) Thanks for the update.
   It may require some more troubleshooting, so yes, please do follow the steps 
   when on desktop. Be sure to disconnect the AdSense module and reconnect once 
   more using a browser [incognito](https://i.imgur.com/ALzgiHp.png) window from
   desktop. Login to your main Google account associated with your Site Kit install
   and your AdSense account when asked.
 * I am happy to work with you once you’ve checked from desktop. Please let me know
   after you’ve tried the above.

 * [@jesslucyg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jesslucyg/) You may be encountering
   network or server environment issues if your WordPress version is not updating.
   In relation to Site Kit we can hopefully assist. Can you attempt the following:
   
   1. Temporarily deactivate some of your other active WordPress plugins 2. Temporarily
   switch to a default WordPress theme (Twenty-xxx) 3. Attempt setup from a browser
   [incognito](https://i.imgur.com/ALzgiHp.png) window after resetting Site Kit
 * If the above fails can you share your [Site Health information](https://i.imgur.com/Rtkmsba.png)?

 * [@jesslucyg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jesslucyg/) thanks for the info.
   Since you’re getting the error with other themes and plugins (without Site Kit),
   it does sound like this may have to do with your server configuration. You may
   need to inquire with your host about the time out messages and what adjustments
   can be made on their end.
