Custom domain SSL intermittently fails on edge IP 99.83.190.102

Hi Netlify team,

My custom domain siraytechnology.com is using Netlify DNS, and HTTPS is already enabled in the dashboard with a valid Let’s Encrypt certificate.

I already renewed the certificate, and it has been over 24 hours, but the SSL issue is still intermittent.

SSL Labs shows:

  • one edge/server is fine
  • another fails with “Failed to communicate with the secure server”

The failing IP is 99.83.190.102.

I can also reproduce this in real use:

  • with a Hong Kong VPN, Chrome shows ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
  • without the VPN, the site loads normally

I found a related forum thread mentioning the same broken edge IP (99.83.190.102), but my case is not the same as the external-DNS configuration issue, because my domain is already using Netlify DNS.

Could someone please check whether there is still an edge-specific TLS/certificate deployment problem affecting siraytechnology.com?

Thanks.

Hi @hrishikesh,

Thanks — this does look very similar to my case.

For siraytechnology.com, I also observed intermittent TLS/SSL failures, and the failing edge IP reported by SSL Labs was 99.83.190.102, while the other path appeared normal. I could also reproduce it from a Hong Kong VPN with ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR.

At the moment, the site appears more stable after removing the problematic path on my side.

Could you please confirm whether siraytechnology.com was affected by the same edge / TLS termination issue on 99.83.190.102?

Also, please let me know:

  1. whether this issue has now been fully fixed for my domain,

  2. whether it is safe to restore the default Netlify DNS/record setup,

  3. or whether you recommend keeping the apex pointed only to the stable path for now.

Thanks

Did you read the solution posted in the thread? There’s no edge/TLS termination issue as the IP you’re using is not a Netlify IP.
