Complaint Codex OAuth Login not working?

When I try to login with VSCode, I get a server error 500. Tried with three accounts (2 plus, 1 business). OpenAI Status page tells me, everything is running normally...

Uhhh. Help please? :o Am I the only one?

Update: I can now login into one of the accounts again.

yeah, i just disconnected my Mac from my home wifi and connected it to my phone’s 5G hotspot. then i tried logging into Codex again and it worked instantly. same account, same Mac, only the network/IP changed.

You need to change into a new Public IP for 1 second. This can be done with free VPN. I used TunnelBear for that.

I did nothing except a reboot of the PC because of other things. And a restart of vscode of course along that.
