RE: I got the same ‘down for maintenance’ message.
That is the message WordPress puts up while it is updating a theme, plugin or itself.
RE: Then, it seems to have updated and returned to normal.
This sounds as like WordPress detected the issue and installed the backup of the previous version. It makes this backup before installing a new version of a plugin. I suspect you still see the notice to upgrade Connections, correct?
