That error also gave me a headache and there seems to be no permanent solution to that only temporary. I always encounter that error on very busy, high traffic website. Though the solution is not permanent, it normally fixes the problem but will reoccur after some time. Click “Start,” “All Programs,” “Accessories,” and then “Command Prompt.”
In the command prompt window, type the following commands one after the other and then hit Enter after every command:
- ipconfig /release
- ipconfig /renew
- ipconfig /flushdns
Note: the first two commands are intended for DHCP connections. If you are not using DHCP and you’re on static IP, they will not work. In this case, just run the last command then try refreshing the page. See if it works. Another possible remedy which reportedly worked for many users is to perform an IP reset. Launch an elevated command prompt.
Click “Start,” “All Programs,” “Accessories,” then right-click “Command Prompt” and select “Run as administrator.” In the command prompt window, type without quotes “netsh winsock reset catalog” then hit Enter. Restart your computer and see if it works.
