Can't connect to Facebook through WiFi - Lumina 92...

Both my teenagers have just had upgrades to Nokia Lumina's at the weekend, from an HTC and a Huawei. Both phones are WM8 and both have the Amber update pre-installed.
Unfortunately neither phone can connect with Facebook through the Wi-Fi but CAN connect through 3G. As both tariffs are on low monthly data usage, you can begin to imagine the annoyance they are displaying at having to switch off Wi-Fi just to make Facebook sync.
Everything else works fine and I have trawled through numerous web pages and tried everything imaginable to get this to work, but no luck.
If anybody else has had similar problems across their Wi-Fi, please can you share the solution and help restore some peace back to our household.
Alas, both the previous WM8 phones worked flawlessly and my ancient HTC HD7 also works without a blip.

Hi Squirrel23,
Welcome to the Nokia forum.
Are you using a Facebook app or you've setup your account via E-mail+accounts? Is this happening to just one specific Wi-Fi connection? Have you tried to connect to other Wi-Fi? Have you tried rebooting your phone? ^AR

  • Can't connect to internet through wifi

    We've been having some internet problems recently, where our wifi works great but the dns lookups failed. My dad fixed this on our desktop and a few laptops this morning, but I don't know what to do with my phone. He had to go to work so I'm kind of hoping theres a simple solution to this. I've already tried "forgetting" our networks and putting them on again, but to no avail. Please help if you can. Thanks.

  • After updated OS X 10.9.5 this afternoon, I couldn't connect to Internet through wifi. Please help me!!!

    After I updated osx 10.9.5 I can't connect to internet through wifi. So, what the problem please help me to solve this problem urgent!!!

    I've been having horrible wifi connectivity problems with my mid-2012 MacBook Air for the last several weeks.  I just realized today that the problems started around the time that I upgraded to 10.9.5 on September 17th.
    It's reached the point where I keep Airport Utility up in a corner of my screen so I can see whether I have internet or not before hitting Send or Post.
    After reading Linc Davis' post from September 27th, above, I ran the Wireless Diagnostics when I lost internet.  Internet access came back while the diagnostics were running.  I pressed Continue and lost connection while the second was running.  Based on Airport Utility, I do not have connectivity more than I do.
    Note that Airport Utility usually shows that it can see the router, but there is no Internet access.  Other times it shows that it can not see the router. 
    Wireless Diagnostics suggested that I restart the router (a new Airport Extreme that I installed in August.)  Restarted the router did not solve anything.
    All other devices, wired and wireless, are working fine.  The affected device is the only one running 10.9.5 wirelessly.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I can't connect to Facebook, it doesn't even register the site, and I can't even ping it in CMD?

    I can't connect to Facebook. I could this morning, but suddenly I can't anymore. It tries to load, and then says "The connection has timed out".
    I also can't connect with Internet Explorer. However, I can connect with Firefox, or IE from other computer (Other computer also has other internet provider).
    I can connect to any other site on the web, like I am now on Mozzila support.
    When I go to run, CMD, and type "ping www.facebook.com" it also says "Request timed out", and 4 packets lost. When I ping it, I get "star.c10r.facebook.com [31.13.64.65]". When I search for that IP i get "Facebook Ireland Ltd".
    When I do same ping on my other computer (and other internet provider) he pings "star.c10r.facebook.com [179.60.192.3]" and pings correctly. From that other computer I also can't ping first IP (31.13...), but from first computer (on which I can't go to Facebook site) I can ping second ping (179...) correctly, but I need to type it in manually. When I just type "ping www.facebook.com" it gives me that first IP that doesn't work (31...).
    Why does it happen, and why do I get different IP's when I type "ping www.facebook.com"?
    Any idea how to fix it?

    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
    to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
    updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
    Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
    '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}
    Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
    Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''Network.'''
    Look for '''Configure How Firefox Connects''' and press the '''Settings''' button.
    Check the settings.
    Contact your ISP and have them check your service.

  • I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch and just did the update to IOS 5. Now I can't connect to my Netgear wifi router. My iPhone connects fine along with all of my other laptops etc. I have the router set with WPA-PSK [TKIP] security and an access list.

    I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch and just did the update to IOS 5. Now I can't connect to my Netgear wifi router. My iPhone connects fine along with all of my other laptops etc. I have the router set with WPA-PSK [TKIP] security and an access list. I've confirmed the mac address is included on that list and that the password is correct. Under choses netwrok I select the network and it just goes into a spin. I have tried removing the password and the access list settings and it still will not complete the connection to the router thus no internet access. The routers firmware is also up to date. This thing worked fine before this update and I've already tried to restore from backup. Any ideas or is the wifi nic bad in this thing with the new apple firmware update? Any fix?

    Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

  • Can't connect to facebook from candy crush using my iphone 5?

    can't connect to facebook from candy crush using my iphone 5

    Returned home only to find the same situation with my home network. Much time on chat support with Apple. Short story long: Must have been corrupted software. Had to restore original original software then add back apps and music. Couldn't back up before doing the restore so I lost a bunch of pics, but at least the phone is working once again.

  • Can not connect to my home wifi suddenly

  • TS1368 I can't connect to iStores through iTunes on my Windows Xp machine. Everything is updated and I am getting message: We could not complete you iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-1202). Any suggestions??

    I have the same problem PLUS I get the "Genius is temporarily unable to show you related music..." whenever I select a song. This occurs even when I log in as Administrator. Updating to 8.0.1 did not fix either problem.
    I can access the iTunes Store and download music. Genius had no problems uploading my iTunes Library info, and it can create playlists for selected songs. I believe this rules out communications and authorization problems. I have a G4 Mac Mini, a G5 PowerPC, and an Intel iMac with the same problem, so it's unlikely to be a Mac hardware issue. A firewall problem was unlikely (since I can access the iTunes Store), but I tested this with the firewall off. Both problems still remained. Updating Genius, turning Genius off and then on again, reinstalling iTunes 8, updating to 10.5.5, etc. did not work.
    The only unusual factor is that I have HughesNet satellite 'broadband.' I cannot see how that would matter, but perhaps the individual song iTunes Store and Genius features don't get along with something in my HughesNet 'modem.' Any ideas from other users?

  • Can't connect to Facebook app or web browser

    However, I can connect to my Tumblr and Twitter apps. What the DEVIL is going on here?
    I'm using the wifi connection of my house, BT. I'm on O2. 

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Do you have a full BB data plan (enabling BIS) on your BB? See this FAQ:
    http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F
    I cannot tell you "why" with any specifics (such would require my hands on your BB), but some apps will work fine via WiFi (going direct to whatever the app hosting place is) and others will require BIS, even if you are accessing through WiFi (I know that FB requires that).
    If you indeed have the proper BIS-level data service from your carrier, then I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
    1) Register HRT
    Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
    2) Resend Service Books
    KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    3) Batt Pull Reboot
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you!
    Good luck!
