Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cloudflare down or is my website down?

If you see a Cloudflare error page (like 522 or 524), the issue may be with your origin server, not Cloudflare. Use our status checker to verify Cloudflare's network. Check origin server connectivity and verify your SSL/TLS settings.

What do Cloudflare error codes mean?

Error 520-527 indicate origin server issues. 520: Unknown error, 521: Origin down, 522: Connection timed out, 523: Origin unreachable, 524: Timeout. Error 1xxx codes are Cloudflare-specific configuration issues.

Why are my Cloudflare Workers failing?

Workers failures may indicate edge network issues. Check the Workers component status. If Cloudflare is up, review your Worker logs in the dashboard, check for CPU time limits, and verify your Worker routes are configured correctly.

Does Cloudflare downtime affect my DNS?

Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1) runs on a highly distributed network and rarely experiences complete outages. Your domain's DNS records are served from multiple edge locations. Major DNS issues would affect millions of sites globally.
