Remove the commata from your minute and hour columns. Specify timeouts and retries explicitely like with
0 9-18 * * 1-5 wget -a /tmp/cron.log --tries=1 --timeout=90 http://www.example.com
You may want to add a log during your tests, this is done with -a
in the example.
[Edit after comment:]
To get to know that it's not smth. wget specific you could replace your cron command line with a timout command that has a higher duration than the 90secs timeout I added in my example:
timeout --kill-after=110 --signal=15 110 wget -a /tmp/cron.log --tries=1 --timeout=90 http://www.example.com
wget should stop after 90 secs, if not, timeout
terminates it after 110 secs. (signal SIGTERM=15 should be sufficient, if not use SIGKILL=9).
