Describe the Bug

I tested on pangolin cloud without installing any realy server, just installed a Newt and tried to use it as a cloudflare tunnel to expose a private network service to the public, but it failed. The Newt logs show ping failed. Is this the main reason that my Newt instance is in China? I confirmed that there is no firewall on the server where my Newt instance is located, and that tailscale and cloudflare are both running fine on that server

Environment

  • OS Type & Version: Ubuntu 22.04
  • Pangolin Version:
  • Gerbil Version:
  • Traefik Version:
  • Newt Version:
  • Olm Version: (if applicable)

To Reproduce

Expected Behavior

What's your vps provider? some vps providers might flag 51820 and 21820 as ddos and selectively flag or block connections, The ICMP happens over the tunnel so if the tunnel can't connect (51820) or your defined port it will cause the ping issue. Also would need to know what versions you're running for stuff.

Sorry didn't read that right in my head for some reason,
If you disable tailscale does it load fine? tailscale is aggressive on using the entire cgnat range for connections which can cause hit or miss issues.
