Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Chat takes 5-10 minutes to process a message, have quit and restarted, reinstalled, used 1.1.1.1 as DNS, cleared all chats, etc. Have barely used cursor in this billing period so I don’t think I am being throttled. On V1.6.45. What can I do to fix? During network diag in settings, DNS, HTTP, and SSL spin forever

Steps to Reproduce
