Immich shows server unreachable but my fix is simple and strange

Background:

• I installed latest version 2.5.6 on both server side and client side
• I installed xray in my homelab so i can use v2rayng to access intranet services
• The immich server url is http://192.168.1.131:12283 and it can be opened in mobile browser

Issue: When i try to login in Android immich app, it shows "server is not reachable"

Fix: I don't know if this is a fix because it's really strange.

I found a Github issues where an engineer ask the user to double click immich logo in the login screen, it will fill the demo site in the server url, and try if the dome site can be accessed in user's App.

I try that

• the demo site also shows "server is not reachable".
• i close the v2rayng, the demo site became reachable
• i reopen the v2rayng, the demo site is still reachable
• i tried my immich server http://192.168.1.131:12283, it became reachable as well!! IT WORKS!!

But i don't know why 😅 maybe some network "feature" of flutter app?
