ChatGPT Not Working? How to Tell an Outage From a Problem on Your End

Troubleshooting ChatGPT begins with determining whether an OpenAI service incident or a local browser, network, account, or device problem is responsible, using the official status page, an incognito window, and a different network as quick checks. The guidance links common messages to likely remedies, such as disabling VPNs or proxies for network and WebSocket errors, removing extensions for loading problems, refreshing or regenerating responses for temporary failures, and following account-security steps for suspicious-activity warnings. It also outlines login fixes involving verification codes and authentication methods, published upload constraints such as a 512 MB document limit and Free-plan daily limits, and separate causes for image-generation failures, including usage caps, policy refusals, long renders, or outages. The article notes that mobile and desktop app issues may be resolved through updates, resets, reinstalls, or using the web version during app-specific incidents, and it characterizes many reported outages as brief or regional. It additionally promotes Atlas Cloud’s GPT-6 Luna playground and API as an alternative route for model access when ChatGPT is unavailable.
