Description of the issue: After enabling Brave IPFS and starting a local node, clicking on “my node” in the brave://ipfs-internals/ page shows that it cannot connect to the node. Tried inputting the custom API address and it still won’t work.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Go to brave://ipfs-internals/
  2. Start local node
  3. View my node
  4. Error - Could not connect

Expected result: Can see status, files, etc.

Brave Version( check About Brave): Version 1.25.68 Chromium: 91.0.4472.77 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information: Disabling shields does not fix.

This also seems to prevent me from sharing files via IPFS.
