Code Challenge: Font Properties not working. Timeout Error

Hi, I am trying to complete this code challenge and when I try to check my work, it gives me this error:

There was a problem connecting to the Code Challenge Engine: Timeout Error. If this problem persists, please contact support at help@teamtreehouse.com.

Is this a treehouse or network connectivity issue? What does this timeout error mean? It's not able to talk to the server to verify the answers? Thank you in advance for any assistance!

Yes, this was probably due to Team Tree House's recent maintenance. If you try it now it should be working as everything is up and running for me. If the problem DOES consist (after you've tried it now) then you should contact the support line, but considering it's working for me, it might be something on your end like a poor connection between you and the Tree House servers.

Thanks for the reply. I was trying to do this on the road and was using a tether connection. Considering I had never seen the error on my home network, I thought that might be the issue.
