Bypassing bot protection for Lemwatch checks

Configure bot-management platforms (Cloudflare, DataDome, PerimeterX, Akamai) so Lemwatch checks succeed without weakening security.

What is the "Is [site] down?" tool?

The is-down tool checks any public URL from an outside vantage point and tells you if the problem is you or the site itself.

Why does is-down say a site is up when I cannot reach it?

When the is-down tool shows a site as up but your browser cannot load it, the problem is almost always local: DNS cache, ISP route, or firewall.
