 * I just installed this plugin, version 6.0.15. The Live Traffic view does not 
   show anything other than a spinning wheel for any of the options. There is an
   error message above that says. “Wordfence Live Activity: Scan terminated with
   error: There was an error connecting to the the Wordfence scanning servers: SSL
   read: errno -5961
    “
 * Can you offer any support for this?
 * Thanks,

 * Hi David,
 * It appears that your server is unable to make or maintain a secure connection
   to the WF scanning server. Try the connectivity test and see if it makes a connection
   successfully.

 * If you are talking about going to Options>Click to test connectivity to the Wordfence
   API servers
 * I ran that test it came back fine (see below). However there was another indication
   of a similar problem. When I run a scan it runs for a while and then it stops
   with:
 * Scan terminated with error: There was an error connecting to the the Wordfence
   scanning servers: Operation timed out after 900000 milliseconds with 0 bytes 
   received.
 * Any other ideas?

 * Hi David,
 * I received word that we were experiencing an issue with our servers. This would
   cause you to intermittently lose connectivity to noc1.wordfence.com (this would
   stop your scans from running) and [http://www.wordfence.com](http://www.wordfence.com)(
   our main website). It looks like service is restored now. Please let us know 
   if you are still having any issues.
 * Thanks,
    Brian

 * Hi there,
 * I implemented live traffic for one of my client. You can give it a try as per
   your need. It checks out the real time visitor on your site.
