About NAMU outages

NAMU sits at number 56 on the worldwide traffic ranking with about 68.8M organic visits a month, and the address it resolves to belongs to Cloudflare, Inc. NAMU publishes 4 addresses for the name, reachable over IPv6 as well as IPv4, and the responding server reports itself as cloudflare.

Name service for namu.wiki is operated by AWS Route 53, with the registration held through Dynadot Inc, and dated to 2015. Namu.wiki sends an HSTS header, so browsers refuse it over plain HTTP. Mail for namu.wiki is handled by Google Workspace. The certificate namu.wiki presented to us was issued by Let's Encrypt, covering 2 names, with 34 days left on it at first check, and negotiated over TLSv1.3. Our first check of namu.wiki returned HTTP 403 in 75 ms, of which 36 ms was name resolution and 2 ms the connection. Those figures are the baseline this page measures namu.wiki against from now on, every 20 minutes.

What to do if NAMU is not working for you

Is it them or you?

Our last check reached namu.wiki normally, from a different network, resolver and route than yours. If it is broken for you, the fault is most likely local or too narrow for a single probe to see. Our next automated check runs within 20 minutes and this page updates with it.

The first thing worth trying

Try a search-engine cached copy. Reference content changes slowly, so a cached version is usually just as good for what you needed.

How reference services typically fail

Pages load from cache while anything dynamic - search, editing, the API - fails. Because so much of these sites is cacheable, partial availability is the normal presentation. The rest of the steps, and why this category breaks the way it does, are on our reference status page, with more background in how we record outage history.

NAMU measured against its peers

What the last 24 checks looked like

Across the most recent 24 checks, the quickest response was 99 ms and the slowest 191 ms, against a 30-day average of 148 ms. The chart above plots each one, so a widening spread is visible before it becomes an outage.

All figures are our own measurements, taken every 20 minutes from one network. What that can and cannot see is set out in the methodology, and every reference service is listed on the category page.

An expired certificate stops browsers loading a site entirely while the server itself stays perfectly healthy, which is why we track it beside the uptime figure.

NAMU status: Common questions

Is NAMU down right now?

NAMU is up and responding normally. This page is refreshed by an automated check that runs every 20 minutes from an independent network, and by reports from visitors.

Why can I not reach NAMU when you say it is up?

Because an outage can be partial. Our check runs from one network and asks for one page. Your problem may be regional, may affect only the mobile app, or may be local to your connection, DNS resolver or browser cache.

How reliable is NAMU?

NAMU has been reachable for 100.0% of the last 2 days we have measured, with 0 seconds of recorded downtime.

Does NAMU have an official status page?

NAMU does not publish a public status page, which is why independent monitoring and user reports are the only external signal available during an incident.

NAMU discussion

Useful comments say what broke, roughly where you are and roughly when it started - That is what turns a pile of complaints into something other people can act on. Links are shown as plain text and carry no SEO value, so there is nothing here worth spamming.
