Is it down? · Developers
The card here reads Cloudflare’s status page live. If it reports no problems, the fault is probably on your side, and Kilobat finds where.

Live status
This card reads Cloudflare’s status page live when JavaScript is on. If nothing appears, open the page below.
What you notice says a lot about which side the problem is on. Kilobat checks both sides and says which.
An outage at Cloudflare, or something on the path to it only: DNS, a VPN or proxy, a blocked host.
Why can’t it connect? checks every layer to cloudflare.com, then Cloudflare’s status page. If the page reports an outage and nothing on your side failed, it says “Cloudflare is down for everyone, not you”. Free
This network: an office, school, hotel or country rule, or its DNS.
Kilobat compares this network’s DNS with one encrypted lookup and tests the secure connection, then says “looks blocked on this network, not down”, with what it measured. Free
Your own line: Wi-Fi, the router, your provider or DNS. Not Cloudflare.
Router and internet latency side by side show whether your own line is slow. Pro names the failing link, Wi-Fi, router, internet or DNS, with a fix. Free Pro
The path from your Mac to Cloudflare: DNS, a VPN or proxy, IPv6, or the server’s answer.
“Cloudflare’s status page reports no problems”, then the layer that broke and what to try next. Free
Cloudflare loads only if every step works. A status page covers the last one; Kilobat checks the five before it too.
Why can’t it connect? Free
Name Cloudflare and Kilobat checks your Wi-Fi, DNS, VPN and proxy, the connection and the server’s answer, then asks Cloudflare’s status page. When the page reports an outage and nothing on your side failed, the verdict leads with it. When your Mac is the problem, it says so first.
# Is it them? Cloudflare’s status page
$ kilobat down cloudflare
# Or me? Every layer from this Mac to Cloudflare
$ kilobat why cloudflare.comThe app’s proxy isn’t answering.
Why can’t it connect? Kilobat tests the request and path the app itself uses, its own proxy, IPv6 and tunnels included, and names the layer that broke.
What Kilobat watches
Kilobat matches apps and sites to the right status page by bundle ID and domain, so a failing Cloudflare points at Cloudflare’s status page, not a guess.
Cloudflare’s overall indicator is almost never green, because a few of its hundreds of data centres are always rerouted. Kilobat counts only open incidents, and so does this page.

The official answer is Cloudflare’s status page, cloudflarestatus.com, which Cloudflare’s team updates. The card at the top of this page reads it live in your browser and repeats only what it says.
When Cloudflare’s status page reports no problems, the cause is usually on your side or on the way: your Wi-Fi or router, your provider, DNS, a VPN or proxy, or a network that blocks it. Try mobile data: if Cloudflare works there, your network is the problem. Kilobat checks each of these and names the one that failed.
Connections from the Cloudflare app, and the sites cloudflare.com, cloudflare-dns.com, one.one.one.one and more, matched to Cloudflare’s status page. It checks your own line first, then asks the page.
Yes. When Cloudflare keeps failing to connect while your own line is fine, and Cloudflare’s status page reports trouble, you get one notification per incident. Turn it off in Settings.

No. It sends a plain request to the status page, with no cookies and nothing about you, your network or your apps. Read the privacy notice.
Yes: the status checks, the notifications and Why can’t it connect? are free. Kilobat Pro, $29 once, adds findings with a fix for your own network, possible causes of call freezes and history.
