**Description** :Hi, I’m pulling data from Airtable, and I had a computed column which suddenly stopped working after 1 month, without any changes on my end.

![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/4/b/4b7c8df898295f6991c1eff63d3d893af1ce32b0.png)

**How to replicate** : Whenever I create a new column and select “Reverse array” I get this error, no matter whether it’s on an existing linked Airtable table, or a new Glide table. I cannot even configure anything any further, nor select which field I want to reverse.

In my app I had this ‘reverse array’ column which showed images from Airtable in my app. In the last 6 hours, sometimes the images would show up automatically, sometimes it wouldn’t. I tried multiple devices as well. This app will be a client portal. If this is a recurring problem, then it will halt my work with clients, and I prefer that not to happen.

Whenever this happens, the cause is almost inevitably due to a poor network connection and/or poor network routing.

Does it work if you switch to a different network or connect to a VPN?

Wow, this worked. I only switched from my 5GHz wifi to the regular 2.4 GHz wifi, and everything is back on track. Thanks a lot! Marking this as the solution
