Laravel Homestead Installation Failed

I am trying to install Laravel Homestead by using "vagrant box add laravel/homestead"

I receive this error:

The box 'laravel/homestead' could not be found or could not be accessed in the remote catalog. If this is a private box on Vagrant Cloud, please verify you're logged in via vagrant login. Also, please double-check the name. The expanded URL and error message are shown below:

URL: ["https://vagrantcloud.com/laravel/homestead"] Error: Failed connect to vagrantcloud.com:443; Operation timed out

Any ideas ?

Samuel;

I just tried running vagrant box add laravel/homestead from the console without issue. Perhaps their server was down when you last tried?

I would also check that you have the latest version of Vagrant (1.6.3) - use the vagrant -v command.

Best of luck.
