I am trying to install the SparkR Package on my Windows 7 R Studio Version.

So far i get the newest version of R (3.2.0). R Studio (0.98.1103). After that i look at different sources to get an idea about how to install SparkR.

Afterwards i first install "devtools" and Rtools (3.3). But now i dont get any further.

When i try to use one of those

install_github("amplab-extras.github.io/SparkR-pkg", subdir="pkg")

install_github("amplab-extras/SparkR-pkg", subdir="pkg")

i get 

 Downloading github repo amplab-extras.github.io/SparkR-pkg@master
Error in function (type, msg, asError = TRUE)  : 
  Failed to connect to api.github.com port 443: Timed out

I tried to install package manually but that also doesnt work.

Do you have any idea of what do i forget?
