2. remove old curl
apt-get remove curl

2. curl
now curl --tlsv1 https://tlscheck.wubook.net/
curl: (35) Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to tlscheck.wubook.net:443

download last curl from https://curl.haxx.se/download.html

now it https://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.59.0.zip

if wget failed you can get it from
wget http://life.wapil.com/curl.zip

unpack it

unzip curl*.zip
cd curl-*

very important!!!!!!!

./configure --disable-shared
make
make install
ln -s /usr/local/bin/curl /usr/bin/curl

now
curl --tlsv1 https://tlscheck.wubook.net/
You are using:TLSv1.2/ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
