RTL/ThunderHub rebalacing not working?

I tried to rebalance (picked both outbound and inbound channels via well established nodes) on Umbrel's both RTL and ThunderHub, both kept being rejected due to non existing routes (or after longer time is says "timeout") even when routes exists..well they are big and also lnninja.com shows that route for rebalancing..I tried also smaller rebalance ammount (50k sats), but still not working..Any ideas?
Thanks and happy lightning!

Up the max fee? RTL is notorious for under estimating fees.

Well I gave 10x higher fees than needed as claimed by both RTL and lnninja.com and RTL is failing rebalance due to timeout and ThunderHub due to "cannot find route between peers". :/

All you need to know for rebalancing here: https://youtu.be/be3lEYrE3cg ..rebalancing is not very user friendly on RTL or TH, but surprisingly running the rebalance-LND script is easier and also gives you many more options for fee management
