Describe the problem

Netbird is causing my Intel 2020 macbook air to kernel panic after a few minutes of being connected. I will attach the log that comes up after the laptop restarts. When i try to reconnect after the laptop restarts i get the error Dial service: context deadline exceeded.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open netbird
  2. Connect with an active exit node (i also had 2 other routes active)
  3. After some time your laptop should restart
  4. See error

Expected behavior

My laptop connects, and i can use the application fine to access my home network.

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

Self hosted quick start version.

NetBird version

netbird version gui 0.27.6

NetBird status -d output:

`Error: failed to connect to daemon error: context deadline exceeded
If the daemon is not running please run:
netbird service install
netbird service start

ghastly@MacBook ~ % netbird service start
"launchctl" failed with stderr: Warning: Expecting a LaunchAgents path since the command was ran as user. Got LaunchDaemons instead.
launchctl bootstrap is a recommended alternative.
