This had me stumped, I checked to make sure all of the Exchange Server services were started and they were so I went to and started searching on the old google machine.
Turns out this has something to do with the Exchange System Attendant Service.
So I restarted the System Attendant Service and it worked.
So to fix MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to make admin interface connection to server. error you need to restart the System Attendant Service.
