Cannot connect to the iTunes store error 10054

Today I tried to update some of my apps, and after awhile I get a popup that says it cannot connect to the iTunes store and gave me error number 10054. I am so tired of Apple doing updates and those updates end up causing more problems than before. Is it so wrong to want something that I pay for to work, at least most of the time? I have frequently had issues similar. I have restarted the device and still have the same issue. Please help!
