Error: WebSocket connection failed for host: wss://relay.walletconnect.org

[Quadrizzz]

I am using web3 modal on my react app which uses wallet connect, it was working previously but now when I try to connect to the app I get an error this error in my browser console "Error: WebSocket connection failed for host: wss://relay.walletconnect.org", I did some research and someone mentioned that it might be because of a missing project id but my project id is in the code so I can't seem to find what is wrong with it. I will appreciate any help I can get.

SDK Version (if relevant)
Js
v2

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://react-wallet.walletconnect.com/
2. you can also check here by clicking connect wallet https://web3modal.com/
3. Just on page load you will get an alert of the same error

Expected behavior
It should load the walletconnect modal but that is not happening

try using a vpn to change your location and try again.

It’s an app for different users, I am not sure it will be sustainable to tell users to use a vpn if they want to use the all.

Does location matter much?
I got a lot of same situation when i try to request signing on iOS mobile browsers, but i was no matter when i have tried on android mobile.

I think location is an issue here because when a VPN is used it works fine and this issue is not just on my app, when I tried using the web3modal website also, I got the same issue, the qrcode for walletconnect was not opening.

Some of my users are receiving this error too....Big part of the user base connecting from Nigeria.
We need a solution for that :(

I am experiencing the same error too but when I use a VPN, it works fine. Please is there a way to resolve this error without VPN??

I am also having this issue.
Everything was working fine before but suddenly stopped working. Now when I open my local development project on the browser I get this error message immediately the page loads ERROR WebSocket connection failed for host: wss://relay.walletconnect.org at f.emitError (http://localhost:3000/static/js/bundle.js:37767:31) at i.onerror (http://localhost:3000/static/js/bundle.js:37735:16).

Then if you try to connect with trustwallet or walletconnect you get a popup message that says "declined".
I think the trust wallet shouldn't use walletconnect API but rather injector or trustwallet extension if it exists.
