I am using Qgis 3.22.16, and QuickOSM ver 2.2.0.
I have tried to run a query from an observed area in OSM at 1:100000 scale. It is a small town in SE QLD, Australia. When I open QuickOSM, I select highway under the Key dropdown. Leave value empty. Click from Canvas Extent, click run and it comes up with an error at the top of the screen: Over Pass API Download Failed, Connection Timed out
. I had done the exact same process a few weeks ago using QGIS 3.22.7 and had no problems.
I have selected remote areas and larger populated areas; it makes no difference, regardless of the size of the town or area.
