use Brave with TunnelBear VPN. had a same error. just try to change country of connection. changing to the one of European countries helped
I think this issue can also occur based only on your ISP, even if your ISP is in the same country and doesn’t generally allow spam. There are certain US ISPs that allocate IP addresses differently than many services (e.g. YouTube) expect.
Ok, found a set of steps that can work. Here are the steps for Windows:
- Clear your browser cache for the site
- Open Command Prompt as administrator
- Run the following commands:
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
- Reboot the machine
Turn off the VPN and it will work fine.

Same for me!
I just cannot understand what’s happening. I was using ChatGPT for my work every day and all was fine: what has changed?
I did absolutely nothing different from yesterday.
Please, can anyone solve my problem?
Don’t tell me to change my VPN, because I already did it and DIDN’T WORK.
Thanks

I meet the same problem , changing vpn is not useful.I sent email to them but don’t get useful reply now. I don’t know what to do next

Hi! I think this problem won’t be fixed anytime soon, as OpenAI has a huge load on its servers and they don’t have time to fix it. I assume that at the moment they are working in emergency mode and do not have useful support, and even if you have a Plus data plan, they cannot guarantee proper operation using a vpn. But this is for now, I believe they will set up Cloudflare servers and we will be able to use chatGPT. Be patient.
Peace!
