I did try:

1. Remove and install Github Pull Request extension.
2. Some actions mentioned here Unable to login to github  github/vscode-github-actions#77

Nothing works.

Have you tried adding your IP to the allow list?

It would be impossible to ask the IT department to whitelist my home's IP address. However, my point is that the Pull Request extension does not work, meanwhile, others work.

My account belongs to an organization, that has enabled the IP whitelist feature, that's why I have to enable my VPN when I need to access some organization-owned repositories on GitHub.com or push my codes to Github.com. Once the VPN is enabled, everything works perfectly.

However, somehow the Pull Request extension did not work. I kept receiving the error of IP restriction.

That's why I think there's something wrong with the Pull Request itself. Maybe I am wrong !?

Just realized that the Pull Request extension worked when I was in the company office but not at my home. It's obviously about IP thing.

However, I would like to emphasize again that the Pull Request extension itself has the problem. :(

It sounds like GitHub is intentionally limiting the IPs that can use GitHub API base on your org's settings. I don't think there's anything that this extension can do to change this.
