I have downloaded the Lynx wallet and stupidly sent over coins to the new wallet before it was synced. On the wallet itself I keep getting 'ESOCKETTIMEDOUT' is there anything I can do about this as I won't see the coins in the new wallet until it is synced.

Been open for a few hours and it is on block 2887 of 766596 with 1 active connection, total headers synced 414000

I have the wallet on windows virtual desktop from Amazon.

Is there anything I can do or just have to wait until it syncs?

you have to wait until it syncs
sometimes stopping and starting again can help it speed up but it will surely take a while .
don't worry though.
you can check your wallet by pasting your address in the bar at https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ecc/
you are able to check that the transaction has gone onto the blockchain there.
