PIA Port Forwarding issue

[veselin-antonov]

My gluetun instance recently became unhealthy and I tried to switch to a new server, but with multiple tries I always get this error:

2026-04-08T14:10:47+03:00 ERROR [vpn] starting port forwarding service: port forwarding for the first time: refreshing port forward data: fetching port forwarding data: obtaining signature payload: Get "https://10.237.128.1:19999/getSignature?token=<token>": context deadline exceeded

I get similar error. It connects OK at first but then after an hour or so I get the above error and port forwarding breaks.
