You need to share the other configurationfiles you used to set it up to be able to see what you have configured wrong

You also have error with retrieving something:  
“unable to retrieve the complete list of server APIs: [metrics.k8s.io/v1beta1:](http://metrics.k8s.io/v1beta1:) the server is currently unable to handle the request”,“stacktrace”:“[github.com/operator-framework/operator-sdk/internal/ansible/proxy.(\*cacheResponseHandler).ServeHTTP](http://github.com/operator-framework/operator-sdk/internal/ansible/proxy.(*cacheResponseHandler).ServeHTTP)\n\t/workspace/internal/ansible/proxy/cache\_response.go:97\nnet/http.serverHandler.ServeHTTP\n\t/usr/local/go/src/net/http/server.go:2916\nnet/http.(\*conn).serve\n\t/usr/local/go/src/net/http/server.go:1966”}

check that you actually have internett access

“although i get a lot of the timeouts;”

where do you see these timeouts? in the kube logs? can you copy and paste those?
