… block democracy.gedling.gov.uk times out from Lambda — the server's WAF drops wreq's Firefox133 TLS client-hello. The endpoint responds correctly from non-Lambda IPs (confirmed 302 via Apache). Switching to playwright uses Chrome's TLS fingerprint which passes the WAF. The previous timeout=30 setting is removed as playwright manages its own timeout and it was not addressing the underlying WAF block.

What broke
democracy.gedling.gov.uktimes out from Lambda with wreq's Firefox133 TLS fingerprint — the WAF drops the connection before any response is sent. The previoustimeout = 30only extended the wait time and did not address the underlying WAF fingerprint block. The endpoint is reachable from non-Lambda IPs (confirmed Apache/302 via proxy).What was fixed
timeout = 30withhttp_lib = "playwright"— Playwright's Chrome TLS fingerprint bypasses the WAF. Thetimeoutsetting was specific to the wreq client and is redundant once playwright is used.Scrape results
