happen when the request you sent to the website server took longer than the
website’s server was prepared to wait. The timed out error are usually
customized by each website, especially for the large and high traffic website.When
the timed out happen, the web page will show (example : HTTP Error 408 –
Request Timeout / 408: Request Timeout ). So,
how to fix this?

might cause long delay and timed out error, but it is only temporary. So
refresh or reload the page is probably works. If the 408 Request Timeout
appears during the checkout process at online merchant, you have to be aware
that it may duplicate attempts and causing multiple charges.

of the website you access are running slow, it might be your internet
connection problems. Find out the problems and try again, contact your internet
service provider for technical support if needed.

etc, the increase of visitors will also cause 408 Request Timeout error, this
is very common. So you have to wait some visitors leave
the website, so you have chances to enter the web page successfully.
