Hi Railway Support Team,
We are currently facing a region-specific connectivity issue with our elogbackends service hosted on Railway.
The backend works fine from India and Australia regions, however users from New Zealand are unable to access the service consistently.
Backend URL:
https://elogbackends-production.up.railway.app
Issues observed from NZ region:
- Browser shows connection/network failures while accessing backend APIs
- Direct backend API access fails from browser
- Curl requests from terminal also fail with SSL/TLS handshake errors
Example curl error:
curl: (35) schannel: failed to receive handshake, SSL/TLS connection failed
We have attached screenshots/logs showing:
- Browser network failures
- ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED issues
- SSL/TLS handshake failure from curl requests
Could you please investigate whether there are any networking, CDN, SSL, edge routing, or region-specific issues affecting access from New Zealand regions?
Please let us know if you need any additional logs or diagnostics from our side.
Thanks.

By configuring the DNS resolver, I meant configuring the client's machine to resolve DNS queries from 1.1.1.1.

Your elogbackends service is deployed and healthy, and the domain resolves correctly to our anycast IP range. Since the issue is isolated to New Zealand while working from India and Australia, we need network path data from the affected region to investigate further. Please have a user in NZ download and run our Network Diagnostics tool and share the output here so we can trace where the connection is failing.

Thanks for the details. The screenshot shows your WiFi network settings, but we need the output from our dedicated Network Diagnostics tool instead. Please download it for macOS or Windows, run it from the affected NZ network, and share the output here so we can trace where the connection is failing.

Hello Railway Support team,
We have already shared the network diagnostic logs earlier as a text file, but it seems the attachment may not have been visible from your side.
So we are sharing the logs again below as screenshots/images for easier reference.
Please find the attached network diagnostic logs from the affected NZ network.
Please let us know if any more details are needed from our side
Thanks.

Seems like this is a network/ISP issue for those in NZ. Try having them access the site with their DNS resolver set to 1.1.1.1.

Hello Railway Support Team,
Thanks for the update.
To clarify, we are currently using only the Railway-provided domain and have not configured any custom DNS from our side.
The application is accessible successfully from India, Australia, and external services like ReqBin. The issue appears only for users in New Zealand browsers/terminal environments.
This suggests the issue may be related to NZ ISP routing, Railway edge routing, or IPv6 connectivity rather than application-level configuration.
We are additionally testing:
- Different NZ ISPs/networks
- VPN access
- IPv6 disablement
Please let us know if there are any known IPv6 or NZ regional routing issues currently affecting Railway-managed domains.
Thanks.

Thank you for the suggestion. After configuring the client machine to use the 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver, the app is now working properly in the NZ region.
