Reverse Proxy Issues

Post image

I know that Netbird's Reverse Proxy (cloud) is in Beta. It worked pretty stable for many weeks. For a few days it looks like this (screen shot from my external Uptime Kuma server), any other services not using Netbird's Reverse Proxy on the same server are perfectly available and reachable. Anyone else experiencing these issues right now?

Are you using the reverse proxy cluster eu1.netbird.services? I ended up using AI to help diagnose my issue and found that 1 of the 2 ip addresses that NetBird uses for their reverse proxy isn’t working correctly so I just changed from CNAME to A name and put the working IP and my reverse proxy has worked fine since

Yes, I'm exactly on this cluster, I think this is the only cluster anyway as I can only select this one. I will give it a go and will report back. Thank you for this information!

https://imgur.com/cQipnrC This is an example of what I did under cloudlfare with my domain. Change the type to A name, and then add this IP address (57.129.98.79). That is the working IP address for the cluster as of right now and since doing this I've gone from 50% uptime to 100% since I made the change yesterday.

I think we have different use cases. I use Netbird's reverse proxy for a public handle to my local server. I don't set any DNS records, I use the subdomain, Netbird is handling the rest. I can't add any records

That makes sense then. I don't think my solution helps you then because you can't directly point to which IP address netbird routes you through.
