The 502 Bad Gateway error usually occurs if the web page you are trying to access is experiencing heavy load resulting in the error. The easiest thing you can do at this time is to try to reload the web page.

If not immediately, reload the page after a few minutes. Meanwhile, try using a different browser to see if it is a browser-specific issue.

3. In the Settings page, scroll down to the Privacy and Security section.
4. Click on Clear Browsing Data.

6. Click the Clear Data button and wait for the browsing data to be cleared.
7. Close and relaunch the browser and check for improvements.
