  I could not use the Window Liver Writer to publish my blog ever since last week. It returns me an error
  “Error attempting to connect to blog at:
  https://ruanqizhen.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php
  The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.”

  It always used the Writer to create my blog, it works good until last week. I haven’t change any setting on either my blog or the Writer. Anyone knows what is the problem?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Please make sure that you have WLW configured as outlined in this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/

  Surely I have read the guide. Actually, the Writer worked fine until recently.

  There may be some larger connection issues here, and we’ll need to exchange diagnostic information.
