Reflector

Hi guys I have a problem with reflector.
I noticed that some times I have no problems, other times when I update the system (to update I always use the command: yay), after all the update packages are downloaded, so it should just install, I get an error like this:

error: unable to download package 'npm-8.11.0-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.sig' from archlinux.thaller.ws:
warning: some files cannot be downloaded
error: unable to perform the requested operation (unexpected error)
Errors occurred, no packages were updated. 

If after these errors I try again to type yay, the packages are installed without errors.

Typing the command systemctl --failed I got this:
    UNIT                    LOAD   ACTIVE SUB    DESCRIPTION                             
● reflector.service loaded failed   failed   Refresh Pacman mirrorlist with Reflector.

This is my reflector.conf : https://pastebin.com/qLswd2ND

PS Sometimes even without errors in systemctl I have the same problem

What can I do?

Relector has its own web page in the forum:

I note that you later duplicated  your post to that link. You should mention it here.

PS It was explained to me that they are probably problems with my DNS server (pihole).
