Hi @cmatrwilliams –
Looking at your two sites, they both seem to have a security layer that is preventing them from loading properly. When I look at the connection I can see:
x-backend-server: stackprotect
This is shown in headers sent by your server. When I try to load the page in the browser, there is a JavaScript bot check that displays before loading the site. This is causing the error with the Jetpack connection.
If this is a plugin, please disable it. If it is a server-level security measure, please reach out to your hosting provider and ask them to disable it.
Ask them to check their security logs for any blocked requests to the /wordpress/xmlrpc.php file on your site, using the Jetpack by WordPress.com
user agent.
If they only offer XML-RPC access by allowing IP addresses, then they will need to allowlist the IP addresses listed here:
* https://jetpack.com/support/how-to-allowlist-jetpack-ip/
Please note that these IP addresses could change (or more could be added) at any time. For that reason, we recommend your host uses the machine-readable versions of these IP ranges in JSON or plain text format to automate configuration changes on their systems.
