As ooxi mentioned, you can set a timeout

Jsoup.connect("").timeout(5*1000).get() //which sets timeout for 5 seconds

Edit: You can specify the timeout though the Connection

Connection connection = Jsoup.connect("");
connection.timeout(5*1000); // which sets timeout for 5 seconds

Before calling .get you can set a timeout for example

Jsoup.connect(url).timeout(0).get();

Have a look at the JavaDocs of Jsoup and Connection
