Intermittent Connection to shell/console

Hi all, I recently got a Hetzner server installed with proxmox. Unfortunately straight away from the clean install I keep getting disconnected from the shell/console each few seconds.
When I go to the cluster log I see pvedaemon there every couple of seconds. It starts a task to auth, then says successful auth for root and then it ends the task. The cycle repeats constantly.

It's also important to note that when i SSH into the machine I have absolutely no issues.
 
the only times i saw that (and it was fixed), it was caused by the network or browser
 
Alright so I've been going through a lot of attempts to try and fix this. Still nothing.
I have tried different browsers (my chrome works for one of my clusters just fine) and also incognito mode.
With regards to the network, I set a ping command to run for my duration of trying and there's 0% packet loss (not sure if this means anything but it was a way I thought I can check network)
1. My hostname was "Proxmox", so my node was named Proxmox. I assumed that may be a problem so I did a fresh install with a different name, Proxmox1 for example and it seemed to work. Then after first CT creation it started happening again.
2. Now I have a new fresh install, similar hostname but I also disabled IPV6, still nothing.

From the logs, what seems to be the line that's related to this may be:
"problem with client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; ssl3_read_bytes: tlsv1 alert unknown ca"
After looking around in the forum I tried to update my certs with "pvecm updatecerts --force" and still, I'm having the same issue.
Any ideas? Would really appreciate some help
 
no - I meant 'client certificates', which your browser uses to authenticate with certain websites/webapps - these are installed in your browser not on your PVE-node
