Server scanning has been very inconsistent lately! It keeps saying online for 1 second and then offline. There are instances where it doesn't scan for a while and then goes offline. My CS Source server is fine.

CS Source is hosted on the same machine and network.

Uptime Kuma and DNS TCP tools say it's running fine.

Currently there are no issues with global server scanning.

See: My server will not add or shows as down, what should I do?

In your case I would pay particular attention to item 5, especially double checking and confirming the GT scanner IPs for whitelisting.

I was messing around with using Pi-Hole and using Unbound DNS (Recursive DNS). I wonder if there's any difference with using Quad9 or Cloudflare DNS as upstream DNS servers. But thanks I'll look at whitelisting the scanner IPs.

My server went down again. I already whitelisted the IPs under the Domains tab in Pi-Hole.

I wonder if it has to do with Playit.gg Tunnelling. I don't have anything special setup. No firewall, no proxy.

Just to confirm; I have again checked a standard list of 15 servers to look for scanning issues.
If at any time there are GT scanning issues more than one of these servers will have stopped scanning. All are continuing to be scanned correctly at this time.

Obviously I cannot offer advice or suggestions on your specific network components or configuration.
I have noted comments, via a google search, regarding udp tunnelling with Playit.gg but again I can offer no advice as I am not familiar with the product.

Do you know if GameTracker scanning will conflict with other services like say, Tsarvar? And by doing so, does it affect game server status on GameTracker?
