Title: Github Issues
Post by: Nekromantik on January 13, 2024, 10:46:21 pm
Hi all
So since November time I am having a lot of intermittent timeout issues when connecting to github.com or any of its domains.
DNS resolves but then connection times out and I need to try 5 to 8 times to get it to connect.
I tried to rule of Sensu by disabling it and then it works for 1 try and then breaks again so not Sensu.
I am not seeing any firewall drops and no IDS enabled.
To rule out my ISP I went back to ISP router for 24 hours and no issues. Not one timeout.
I am out of ideas. Why is Opnsense not connecting to Github?

Can confirm that firehol l3 sometimes blocks github. That's why I don't use l3 anymore.

yeah i disabled it and now it works.
would been quicker to find out cause if the drop was logged along with the alias that dropped it.
thanks all
