I am trying to connect my Arduino based Controllino Maxi Automation Industrial PLC to the Blynk app, but I am getting this message in the Serial Monitor:
[486767] Connecting to blynk-cloud.com:80
There is no actual connection between them. This is my first time trying this, can anyone assist me?
The Controllino has an Ethernet Port which utilizes a Ethernet WIZnet Chip W5100. The code i used is from the example sketch.

*************************************************************
This example shows how to use Arduino Ethernet shield (W5100)
to connect your project to Blynk.
NOTE: Pins 10, 11, 12 and 13 are reserved for Ethernet module.
DON'T use them in your sketch directly!
WARNING: If you have an SD card, you may need to disable it
by setting pin 4 to HIGH. Read more here:

Feel free to apply it to any other example. It's simple!
