Constantly sending joincode, but never joins

Help
1

Hi, Husarnet Team.

For some hours already, we have been unable to join the network.

The logs constantly say something like this inside the Docker Container:

2026-01-07_10:28:11 INFO Sending join request to websetup (joincode: LLcM3WZ…)
2026-01-07_10:28:16 INFO Sending join request to websetup (joincode: LLcM3WZ…)
2026-01-07_10:28:21 INFO Sending join request to websetup (joincode: LLcM3WZ…)
2026-01-07_10:28:26 INFO Sending join request to websetup (joincode: LLcM3WZ…)

When looking http://localhost:16216/api/status, I have something like this:

The version:

● Daemon (running):          2.0.180
● Daemon (binary):           2.0.180

When I run root@ruben-example:/# husarnet join LLcM3WZ… I have a timeout error:

SUCCESS:  Successfully registered a join request
SUCCESS:  Waiting for Base server connection (any protocol)…
▄  Waiting for websetup connection…  (1m36.908s)

Hello @ralves

Thank you for the report

I can confirm there was routing problem with our Docker network, where packets going to websetup were not reaching the websetup compatibility layer.

Everything should be resolved by now,

Thanks,

Hi, @ympek.

We did some tests here, and indeed, the issue seems to have been solved.

Thank you very much.

Have a wonderful day.

Hi @ympek , this error seems to be back.

We are unable to connect:

And I just saw another user reported the same error:

I’ll close the thread since it was reported as resolved in the other thread (linked just above).
