GKE Cluster Node not booting


I am trying to create a simple GKE cluster but the Nodes aren't booting properly due to this error: Failed to connect to storage.googleapis.com.

It's a private cluster and I have the NAT gateway for the network. The Node pool also uses the default compute service account which has access to everything.

Has anyone seen this error before or might know what the issue could be? Any help would be much appreciated, thank you very much :)!
