Cursor + Ngrok = Problem reaching xxx.ngrok-free.app

How To
1

I’m trying to use Ngrok to forward the traffic of Cursor on a local LLM. Even if inside the Cursor configuration, if I click Verify after putting the dynamic address of Ngrok in the base URL of OpenAI, it says OK, if I use the chat, it goes in timeout before the response arrive from my local LLM.

The error in cursor is: “Error reaching xxx.ngrok-free.app”

Inside the traffic inspector of Ngrok, I see the request from Cursor and the response when it is completed.

Any idea on how to solve it? Do I need to upgrade to Ngrok paid? or there is another way to do the port forwarding? :thinking:

Thanks

I’m not sure, but if anything, just open an issue to the author on GitHub.

I think I have solved it. Apparently with my home internet connection, the public IP address changes very often and this makes it not reliable even with Ngrok. I tried with the iPhone hotspot and it worked very quickly.
