How to fix StackPath not working
StackPath is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach stackpath.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check StackPath reports first
Check the report level first. The status at the top shows whether problem reports from other people are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, so a normal level points to a local fault on your side.
Rule out DNS for StackPath
Run nslookup for the hostname you use. Compare your default resolver with 1.1.1.1, because an ISP DNS fault can look like a StackPath outage. Flush your cache with ipconfig /flushdns on Windows or sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder on macOS, then load the page again.
Bypass VPN and browser blocks
Disconnect your VPN or proxy, then open the site in a private window with extensions disabled, because a proxy rule can block only your machine. If the error clears, turn off the extension or split tunnel rule that touches the StackPath hostname.
Test the StackPath edge from another network
Use your phone on cellular data to load the same URL. If it works there, the problem is your local network or machine. On a desktop, run curl -I against the URL and compare the response headers with a request sent to your origin to see if the edge is returning an error.
While StackPath is down: what to use instead
- Cloudflare Cloudflare works when your edge is unreachable.
- Fastly Fastly helps if you want static assets served from a separate CDN while the main delivery path is broken.
- Amazon CloudFront Point CloudFront at your origin bucket or server if you already run workloads on AWS and need a quick bypass.
- Akamai Akamai fits larger sites that keep a second delivery network ready, so a failover does not turn into a scramble when the primary edge stops answering.
Fix StackPath on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
StackPath on Windows
- Fix
- Clear your Windows DNS cache and check your local hosts file to ensure StackPath CDN IPs aren't misrouted. You can also temporarily disable any third-party firewalls or VPNs that might block StackPath's edge servers.
- Check
- Check the official StackPath status page in your browser or use network diagnostics to test if your PC can resolve StackPath-hosted domains. If other sites load but StackPath-dependent assets fail, the service or its edge node might be down.

- Fix
- Flush the DNS cache in macOS and verify that your local network configuration is not blocking StackPath's IP ranges. Restarting your web browser or testing from a different network connection can also help resolve routing issues.
- Check
- Use network lookup tools to query StackPath's DNS servers and verify connectivity to its edge servers. You can also check the StackPath status portal to see if there are active incidents affecting CDN endpoints.

- Fix
- Clear the cache of the web browser encountering StackPath connection issues, or toggle your Wi-Fi off and on. If you use a private DNS provider on your Android device, try reverting to default settings to ensure StackPath domains resolve correctly.
- Check
- Attempt to load the StackPath dashboard or a StackPath-hosted resource using a mobile browser to see if the connection times out. Check StackPath's system status page to confirm if the outage is widespread.
StackPath on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Toggle Airplane Mode or reset your network settings on your iOS device to force a fresh connection to StackPath's CDN edge nodes. If you are using iCloud Private Relay or a VPN, disable them temporarily as they can interfere with StackPath routing.
- Check
- Try accessing the StackPath status dashboard or a known StackPath-hosted asset in Safari to check for loading errors. If the page fails to load across both Wi-Fi and cellular networks, StackPath is likely experiencing downtime.
What happens when StackPath goes down
StackPath is an edge platform that runs CDN delivery, DDoS filtering, WAF rules, and edge compute for websites and applications. Developers and security teams route traffic through it; when it breaks, page loads and API calls fail.
CDN delivery breaks first. Pages load slowly, images stall, scripts time out, and visitors see gateway errors instead of content when the edge stops serving assets. API calls and TLS handshakes then fail, so apps that depend on the edge for auth and routing stop responding. WAF and DDoS filtering can also reject legitimate traffic or fail open, which makes some regions or customer networks see problems while others stay fine.

How we track StackPath
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for StackPath, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for StackPath, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. StackPath doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
