New Install Cannot Access Peers
I have done a new self hosted installation running on a VM. I have been able to get the peers connected. But when trying to connect to each peer to ping or use resources I cannot access. Not sure how to troubleshoot.

What are your acl policies in the web interface?
I will review now but they should be default
If it's default ALL <-> ALL and the peers are in ALL & ALL for groups and ACL, that should be fine.
That would leave just actual firewalls between the peers, the 2 peers you are testing with, what are the OSes?
Ubuntu 24.04 and MacOS
Darn. Mac is a bit out of my wheelhouse, but are you using
UFW on the buntu? ufw showyep
So it's off during the test? :hmmmm:
When you ping, are you going for the fqdn, or the ip?
the ip
and the fqdn
Gotcha. When you ping the fqdn do you get the ip as expected?
yes I do
OK, well that rules out any real failures with the general usage of the mesh there.
Honestly, your best bet might be just getting 2 windows machines or vms with firewalls disabled on there, just to verify it does work.
That way you cut out providers blocking something a bit more.
I will add my windows machine and do more testing
no Change still does not work
Do
netbird status -d on all machines and tell us what it returns.Hi, I am facing the same issue.
Any resolution?
When I get home I will submit

Just getting back around not sure if I feel comfortable posting all of that information here What exactly are you looking for ?
So I found somewhat of a solution
when using an exitnode, I am able to access the remote network
but then my internet stops working (like i cant access google.com or any other internet websites, just my other peers' network.) and when I stop using the exitnode, I can access the internet but then I can't access peers
@Codixer
When you say the remote network, are you talking about via their peer ips in the mesh 100.x range, or via their actual local IPs?
For the exit node usage, make sure your DNS servers are on the public internet and not private IPs, and see if that helps.
I will give that a try. I use cloudflare for my DNS and somewhere I read that I need to enable qRPC.
I figured it out...
Cant run both tailscale and Netbird at the same time
the minute I removed them from conflicts everything worked correctly
Oh lol. Yes. Any multiple vpn setup gets a little funky. I have crazy one working with Wiresock's netguard and Netbird, and it was a total pain to get how I wanted (block LAN, Wiresock for certain apps, then Netbird for the mesh).
PUTTING THIS AT THE BOTTOM***
ISSUE WAS RESOLVED BY REMOVING TAILSCALE AND ONLY USING NETBIRD
