 * Hi there, I’m fairly new to WordPress, but not to blogging. I have 3.2.1 installed
   at: [http://ilovepiercecounty.com/](http://ilovepiercecounty.com/) and wanted
   to add some of the WordPress.com functionality to my blog and installed the Jetpack
   plugin. The Plugin installed apparently, but when I push the “Connect to WordPress.
   com” button, I get the following error:
 * > Jetpack could not contact WordPress.com: register_http_request_failed.
   > This usually means something is incorrectly configured on your web host.
   > There are no HTTP transports available which can complete the requested request.
 * I’ve found on the forums that a number of people are having the same issue. Some
   get it resolved, some don’t. I e-mailed my hosting provider (Jodohost) and they
   say they can’t help me with WordPress, but if something needs to be changed on
   the server to let them know and they’ll work on it. I have no idea of what might
   need to be changed.
 * I’ve also sent a request to [support@wordpress.org](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-jetpack-113-register_http_request_failed/support@wordpress.org?output_format=md)
   and have yet to hear back.
 * Has anyone figured out a way to troubleshoot this issue to understand exactly
   why this is coming up? I’ve seen a number of theories about changing timeout 
   values, etc.
 * If anyone could point me in the correct direction, I’d REALLY appreciate it.
 * Thanks!
    John

 * install core control plugin, go to external HTTP access and disable cURL. then
   try to connect WP from jetpack.

 * If you manage your web server and set the outgoing connections to allow the IP
   address then you should have no issues. After you set it wait about a half an
   hour though.
