I'm not sure if this is the right place but I wasn't sure where else to ask. I have been running Alby Hub on Windows 11. After a couple days of not being opened, I opened Alby Hub and I'm getting a little red circle complaining about connectivity issues. When I look under the "Node" tab I see
"1 issues impacting your hub were found
- Alby Services:"
When I look under "connected peers" I see that the following nodes are offline:
- flashsats.xyz
- LQWD-Canada
How do I update the appropriate values to resolve the connectivity / red dot issues? I went to https://alby.instatus.com/ and see an alert for "New LNServer IP address (update required)". When I try to add the peer mentioned there, nothing happens, I don't see it under connected peers in Alby Hub.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Update: I was able to add the peer suggested at https://alby.instatus.com, but the two other connected peers are still showing as disconnected? Will the red dot showing connectivity issues stay red as long as these are offline? Should I remove them? I don't want to do anything stupid.
Flashsats has been flakey the last few days, showing as up on my node currently, but has been down a few times over the last few days.
LQWD is down for us as well. It was having ups and downs a few weeks ago. Was down a few days at a time.
There's a zero-day CLN vuln that has operators keeping their nodes down until a patch is released. I have a few others offline that are otherwise very reliable.
You don't need to do anything, these are usually transient issues... CLN patch is expected next few days.
You can force close if you have outbound liquidity stranded for longer than is acceptable, that'll cost a little in chain fees, and you'll have to open a new channel with someone else.
