Hi, I’m from Peru, and I recently installed a Core Lightning Node. I opened a channel but couldn’t make a transaction, so I decided to close the channel. However, I’ve been waiting for 17 hours, and the channel still hasn’t closed.

I transferred my remaining balance to my Bitcoin wallet, but the fee rate options for "slow," "normal," and "urgent" only show 1 sat/vB. As a result, the transaction hasn’t been completed because of the low fee rate.

Also, I already made the backup as instructed in this link: #1443 (comment).

How can I increase the fee rate to complete this transaction? Also, how can I successfully close the channel?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Great resource for you https://github.com/PEXmas

Umbrel Inc. is not officially affiliated with Blockstream's c-lightning,
one of many implementations feel free to see my proof of work on the Umbrel Forum detailing the differences between different lightning specifications,

It can be frustrating for an individual inundated with comments about third-party applications, here is their official resource on their current contact methods please refer there, as this is an issue for them to sort out and as per in computer programing and agile open-source environments, this company has to submit a PR otherwise known as a review, once it is reviewed, their code can be corrected and implemented, again @PEXmas this is the resource to refer to the Blockstream team, they are the ones who manage Core Lightning, formerly known as c-lightning the lower market share Lightning specification, after Lightning Labs' LND spec, please let me know if I may explain anything else here, but my time is limited, and I prefer to be compensated for my efforts, thanks!!
