Resolution:

• Restart your IDE and verify your internet connection is stable.
• Ensure both your IDE and the Junie plugin are updated to the latest versions.
• Check your IDE's proxy settings in Settings | Appearance & Behavior | System Settings | HTTP Proxy.
• Temporarily disable any antivirus or firewall software to rule out local interference.
• Try connecting from a different network (such as a mobile hotspot) to rule out local network issues.
• Configure your system DNS to use 8.8.8.8 (Google Public DNS) and retry the connection.
