Tried again just now (17 hours after first post). Again, couldn’t retrieve the key. The connectivity test passed again. However, I could not ping noc1 from the blog’s host system.
%ping -c 4 noc1.wordfence.com
PING noc1.wordfence.com (69.46.36.8): 56 data bytes

However, I can connect to noc1 on port 80:
%telnet noc1.wordfence.com 80

Any ideas what the problem may be?
