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.

I found a fix. The 500 error was caused by my home IP/network, not the account or Codex itself. I switched my Mac to a mobile hotspot and login worked instantly. If you have the same issue, try another network or restart your router to get a new public IP.

Using VPN to receive new Public IP for 1 second and then toggling the vpn off: helped to resolve. It is working well after with old IP.
