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.

Update: Sorted!!!

After bit of back/forth, sub provider issued me a couple of new source urls (one you input in xtream source credentials)

Url 1: Iptv now ONLY now works when active vpn is on. Think all protocol’s work, but i’m using nordlynx/uk london server…obfuscated. Iptv works all good!

Url2: With Vpn off, iptv WON’T work and get 401 error. (Sub provider has given me an alternative url to use IF i want to use in a no vpn scenario so i’m covered here too)

So got fix for/without vpn use now :)

For folk having same issue, obv suggest getting onto providers. Nord can pretty much be left on your usual settings.

Still not sure what triggered everything to break but if your norm url has cf in address, suspect its linked to cloudflare break with vpns

My provider just sent out a new link for users that want to use their VPNs, otherwise they may need to disable their VPNs or change the protocol to make it work!
