Hey everyone,
I'm new to this and I've got a Lightning Node running. I'm about to open a channel, but I just saw that my node shows as "Offline" in the Lightning Terminal (it says the node can't be connected).
I'm using Umbrel to host it. Is this because I haven't opened a channel yet or is it a problem with Umbrel and some network issues?
By the way, I do have 4 peers connected to the channel right now.
Here are some screenshots:

I'd appreciate any insights from those with experience.
Thanks!

I don't run Lightning Network channel but you can read some guide topics from some members and you maybe find solutions for your problems.
Basics of the Lightning Network
The Lightning Network FAQ
Electrum Lightning Network walkthrough
[Table] All Lightning Network Threads In One Place
The Mastering the Lightning Network book.
Did you try to restart Umbrel? also try to update both your lightning daemon and Umbrel to the latest version

Lucky you, you were at least able to login to lightning terminal currently Im not able to run lightning terminal on any of my 2 nodes and Im not able to login either directly on lightning terminal website into my account. Running also umbrel (but 2 different versions)
Here is a thread devoted to problems with Umbrel. Perhaps someone has posted the solution to your problem there.
