What's the problem 🤔

I'm noticing an issue where the VPN connection fails if https://ipinfo.io is unavailable. The issue seems to be common across multiple endpoints/geographies using both Nord and PrivateVPN. Wireguard and OpenVPN.

Is it possible to set a failback such as ipconfig.io to obtain the endpoint IP address in these instances?

Thanks in advance!

The VPN doesn't fail, the ip getter fails because the VPN doesn't work. It's separate subroutines, and the ip getter does not influence the vpn subroutine at all.

Check the wiki url from the unhealthy message logged to resolve your issue 😉
