Asked By TechieWhiz123 On

I've been running into Event ID errors 1014 and 4266 on my Windows 11 machine, and I'm a bit lost on how to resolve them. Specifically, the error messages are saying there's a DNS timeout and an issue with allocating a UDP port. Here are the details of the errors:

**Event ID 1014:** "Name resolution for the name [link] timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded. Client PID 2360."

**Event ID 4266:** "A request to allocate an ephemeral port number from the global UDP port space has failed due to all such ports being in use."

My system specs are:
- Windows 11 (latest update)
- Ryzen 5 3600
- ASUS PRIME B550-PLUS AC-HES
- 32GB of RAM
- RTX 3060 Ti 8GB

Any help in figuring out what's wrong and how to fix these issues would be really appreciated!

It sounds like your WiFi or router might be freezing up. This could be affecting how your computer accesses the DNS servers and causing the timeout errors. A good first step is to restart your router and see if that helps. Also, check if other devices on your network are experiencing similar issues.

Before changing anything, make sure to back up your data. As for fixing those errors, have you tried checking your network configuration, or even resetting your TCP/IP settings? Sometimes those can get messed up and lead to all sorts of connection issues. You can also check if your DNS servers are correctly configured.
