    The WSUS administration console was unable to connect to the WSUS Server via the remote API. 

    Verify that the Update Services service, IIS and SQL are running on the server. If the problem persists, try restarting IIS, SQL, and the Update Services Service.

    You have tried what it suggest, Verify that the Update Services service, IIS and SQL are running on the server. If the problem persists, try restarting IIS, SQL, and the Update Services Service ?

    The logical conclusion is that there's no WSUS server at 192.168.22.207:8530, or the machine has been configured to block connections from the client being used.

    You should check the IIS logs and see if IIS received the connection request, and what error code was actually returned (e.g. 404, 401.1, 401.2, 401.3, 403.x).

    Also... whenever I see people trying to access WSUS using IP Addresses (instead of hostnames), I *always* ask this question: Why are you not using a hostname???
