client.connect(website, 80) seems not working

[Peter_Stuhr]

This program worked fine for me but after a week, trying to check again, the program seems to stop at

//API service using WiFi Client through PushingBox then relayed to Google
if (client.connect(WEBSITE, 80)) {

I changed nothing (as far I can remember). Does anybody has an idea why the program is not passing this instruction?

Kind regards Peter
