This site can’t be reached, took to long to respond

Hi, Im having a problem regarding my React deployment project that cant be accessed even after the deployment. The thumbnails appear for both the server(backend) and client(frontend) of my project and there is no problem locally.

I have no problem when it comes to the internet connectivity as I even try to switch to other network to access the page but still keep facing the slow loading and finally the “This site can’t be reached, took to long to respond” pops up.

The project is a full stack MERN Vite React that I imported from my private GitHub repo in order to deploy. It uses the Gemini AI Api from Google Studio to generate the response from a prompt and I make sure to put every environment variables before the deployment and use the deployed backend URL for my frontend environment variable rather than localhost URL. I also tweak the advance functions setting. The time is set to 60 sec so that it will have enough time to load but nothing changes.

This is my project URL in Vercel: https://quick-blog-coral.vercel.app/

I was able to load the site, but it’s pretty slow. What do you see in the console and network tab when it throws the error?

Fast network:

Throttled to 3G:

There is no error in console.

Meanwhile, this is what happens in my network tab:

It seems like the request timed out in your example. The Hobby plan’s default timeout limit is 10 seconds, configurable up to 60s. If your API calls to Gemini AI are taking too long, they’ll time out.

A few debugging ideas:

  • Check your Vercel function logs in the dashboard for any error messages
  • Test your backend endpoints directly (if deployed separately)
  • Wrap code in error-handling statements, like try/catch
  • Streaming helps when working with AI providers since they are normally a bit slow in providing a complete response
