Are you behind a firewall or proxy? That is the common source of this
problem

See “gem help install” on how to provide proxy settings for gem
installation.

gem install fastercsv --http-proxy=http://user:pass@proxy:port/

So this raises again my previous question: are you behind a proxy or
firewall?

The IP address of rubygems.org is reporting in your case do not match
the real one.

You’re in USA on Elliot Cable network?

For some reason, if that is your IP address of your current internet
connection:

Means you have a miss configuration in windows hosts file.
