ChatGPT Error Code 1020: Possible Causes and Solutions

When you try to log in to OpenAI to use ChatGPT, you may see Error Code 1020. Behind this error code is the Cloudflare service, which is supposed to protect the site from spam attacks. Usually, the site denies access if too many users want to access it or suspicious behaviour has been detected.

• If you are looking for a simple solution, you can first wait and visit the website again after some time. This helps especially if the site is overloaded.

• Use a different device or browser to open the website. If this does not work, it may help to clear both the cookies and the browser cache.

• Check your internet connection. You can also log into another WLAN or connect your PC via LAN cable. If this does not help, you can also restart the router.

• If you are using a VPN, it may help to deactivate it. Alternatively, you can try turning on the VPN to access the site.

• Changing the DNS server is also a way to get rid of the error message. You can make this change in the network settings.

• The error code may be caused by an add-on in your browser. Disable the add-on and try to visit the website again.
