WordPress makes network requests via HTTP API abstraction layer, that tries to pick optimal method to connect – depending on server configuration (curl being one of preferable and common).
In your case it seems either network connectivity fails completely or WordPress fails to select working transport to make network requests.
You can use Core Control plugin to see what network transports are available/selected as detected by WordPress.
