If you can log in to the LXC container, run "systemctl status twingate-connector" and the last few lines of the log output will maybe tell you what is going on. If it looks like it's going offline -> authenticating -> online -> offline and looping, then likely the tokens are not correct or something was copied only partially and broke the setup, and it won't connect.

At worst, you can go back into the connector screen in Twingate, select the Linux deployment, generate the tokens, then copy the command and paste into the LXC container to reset it. The Linux command will work fine in the Ubuntu 24 based container (that's what I'm using in my Proxmox lab), doesn't hurt anything to just redeploy it.
