Hello Tylady,
A server connection timeout means that a server is taking too long to reply to a data request made from another device. Timeouts are not a reply message: they show up when there isn't a reply and a server request is not fulfilled in a predetermined length of time. A server connection timeout error does little to tell you what went wrong or why the error happened: it just identifies that the error occurred. Timeout errors can happen for a number of reasons. The server, the requesting device, the network hardware and even an Internet connection can be at fault.
The purpose of a server timeout is to prevent a device from endlessly waiting for a sever to respond. Server timeouts can occur when using a Web browser to view a site, connecting to an online service with a game or running a program update, among other situations. A task that has timed out or undergone a timeout is considered incomplete or failed. Essentially, the device that made the initial request for data from another device "gives up" on waiting for that information to be sent when a timeout occurs.
In this case, you are in the North East of the United States, and our servers are in Europe, that multiplies the probable causes
A request from a device has to pass through multiple checkpoints on its way to the server. If any of these checkpoints is too busy, the request may be dropped. For example, a request to load a website in a Web browser may time out when connecting through a home network because the router is overtaxed with requests from other computers and devices on the network for other servers.
I hope I have answered your questions, and I'm sorry it happens all the time with you
Best regards
