524 Error Tip -- Check Your Railgun Settings!

Hope this tip might help someone in the future.

Long story short, my host must have made some server changes to their railgun settings which resulted in Error 524 a timeout occurred errors. The home page was partially loading but any subsequent activity returned a 524.

Normally a server load/hosting issue, I was confused because Cpanel was showing very low usage and other domains under the same hosting account were working fine and fast. I even went so far as to delete the website and upload a backup, but the new install script was also timing out.

Resolved instantly by going to Cloudflare panel > speed > railgun and testing/selecting a working connection from the list of options.

Cheers!
