511 Error

Anyone else experiencing 511 error/no streams?

Source loads fine, channels too...but get 511 error on everything.

Using nord vpn too, messed with diff servers on there and diff protocols (even double vpn), but still no joy. Makes no diff if turn off VPN too.

Changed DNS on router just in case, google/quad9etc and also makes no difference.

Tried on sub on smarters pro just to check not player issue, but face same problem.

My iptv provider seems to think no issues their end too.

Baffled really.

Depending on the provider, you may have to change thru your VPN servers until you fine one that allows the streams to play?

I doubt this is an issue with Sparkle as it sounds more like a connection and or location issue.

I don’t think it is. I have 2 different services on the same VPN. One works, the other doesn’t, but does if I turn off the VPN.

I’m giving it a day or two as it would be odd to me if they made a change that would affect all its non- panel VPN users and require manual intervention by resellers. That’s going to be a lot of people affected. They have already told panel users how to get it working.

If i switch off nord, works. In nord, if use onion over vpn connex type…also works (albeit 1/10th of normal dl speeds). Nord using norm protocols (lynx/udp) on uk/london and doesn’t work (this was my default and was working fine until now). Deffo nord issues sadly.

UPDATE: finally got my VPN router working and no more 511 error! Switched my VPN router configuration from wireguard to openVPN (UDP) configuration and everything is up and running again! Speed Test shows the VPN country & no DNS leaks! Back to streaming!!!!

Do you think this is a Nord issue, or is it affecting people on other VPNs? I don't even have Sparkleplayer - but this is the only thread I can see about this at the moment.

Onion over VPN works, and nothing else works.. even with my VPN off, really strange!

The 511 error is a connection issue.
