Does it Grabit work OK on the same PC?
Which time out did you use for the server in SABnzbd?
Most Usenet operators advise you to set at least 60-120 seconds.
We have seen some rare name resolution problems on some systems.
If you replace newsreader14.eweka.nl with 81.171.88.251 does that make it work?

Tough issue.
Do you use any software firewall or a virus scanner that does some firewalling?
Can you try an alternative server? Maybe your ISP has one.
Just as a test.

@jantjegroen00  my guess is that it has largely to do with the server. I switched mine and im already able to connect to eweka without a problem
