Unable to aquire image through ImageIO.read(url) because of connection timed out.
- by Jake Frederix
Following code always fails
URL url = new URL("http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/126/8636005.jpg");
Image img = ImageIO.read(url);
System.out.println(img);
I've manually checked the url, and it is valid, and contains a valid jpg image.
The problem I get is;
Exception in thread "main" javax.imageio.IIOException: Can't get input stream from URL!

What does this mean?
Funny thing is, if I change my internet-connection to that of the neighbour's wireless, it suddenly does work.
