Start9 HQ Lightning Node - Connection Issues

General

Issue

My Lightning channel with Start9 HQ node remains persistently inactive. The channel was working previously but now cannot maintain peer connection.

Node Details

Start9 HQ Node: 025d28dc4c4f5ce4194c31c3109129cd741fafc1ff2f6ea53f97de2f58877b2295

Addresses tried: Both Tor (.onion) and clearnet IP
Connection result: “connection initiated” but peer never stays connected

Status Check

My other Lightning peers connect and work normally, so this appears specific to the Start9 HQ node.

Request

Could the Start9 team check if there are any known connectivity issues with the HQ node? This might affect other community members with channels to Start9 HQ as well.

Thanks for any assistance or status updates.

I noticed mine was showing off-line for a while. I didn’t take the time to research it at the time. But it’s showing on-line now, on my end. It’s always best to have open channels to at least three reasonably connected nodes so that if one goes offline for a little while, you can still function. A single channel may also have a hard time finding routs, to or from, people you’re transacting with anyway.

Thanks for the reply. I just noticed that the Start9 HQ node is back online after being offline for two days. I need to reorganize my channels to better manage payments and availability. Thanks for the advice.
