I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your website. Based on the error message you provided, "Error code 521: Web server is down," I found some relevant information in the Cloudflare documentation.

According to the documentation (https://developers.cloudflare.com/support/troubleshooting/http-status-codes/cloudflare-5xx-errors/error-521/), Error 521 occurs when the origin web server refuses connections from Cloudflare. The two most common causes of 521 errors are:

  1. Blocked Cloudflare requests.
  2. Security solutions at your origin may block legitimate connections from certain Cloudflare IP addresses.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

  1. Review your origin web server error logs to identify web server application crashes or outages.
  2. Confirm that Cloudflare IP addresses are not blocked or rate limited.
  3. Allow all Cloudflare IP ranges in your origin web server's firewall or other security software.
  4. If you have your SSL/TLS mode set to Full or Full (Strict), confirm that your origin supports HTTPS and/or you have installed a Cloudflare Origin Certificate or a certificate matching the requirements for these modes.

You can find more information on troubleshooting Error 521 on the Cloudflare documentation page (https://developers.cloudflare.com/support/troubleshooting/http-status-codes/cloudflare-5xx-errors/error-521/).

Additionally, since you mentioned that you can access your website using a VPN, it's possible that the issue is related to your local network or ISP. You may want to try accessing your website from a different network or location to see if the issue persists.
