AM trying to download themes for site, from within my Moodle, but get response "remoteunavailable"

Plugin downloads ok, I hit install, it ties to install, then says "cannot install" and gives the error code remoteunavailable.

Moodle 3.0.  on Bluehost

Also when trying to add another mail plugin for 3.0 get tool_installaddon/installing_non_installable_component,

I am having this trouble now too (v3.1) - can't install any plugins. My host (asmallorange) has been troubleshooting for 45 min and they say there is no issue with the server. Help please! 

There is a request to install plugin Poster (mod_poster) version 2015102601 from the Moodle plugins directory on this site. However, the plugin installation pre-check failed (reason code: remoteunavailable).
