Visual Studio 2010 git extention manage remote devices unable to connect

I'm sure I'm making a trivial mistake. I am using the Git Source Control Provider for VS 2010 and the Git Extension UI. I am completely new to Git concepts, and I do everything using the user interface, not the command line.

I created a repo and then a private and public key. Then I set up the remotes for the repo using the private key (Public was added to my GitHub account). Everything worked fine, as I was able to push my local repo. To configure the remote, I used the Git Extension in VS (Git → Remote Controls).

Then I created another repo and tried again to configure the remote control using the same private key, but it failed and showed the error "Could not open connection: Host does not exist." I created a couple more private / public keys, but again it is not with the same message.

What am I doing wrong? Anyone? Thanks in advance.

As I said, it was an empty mistake. I tried to push a new local repo using HTTPS-url instead of SSH-url. I used SSH url and now everything is cool.
