Both myself and OH are on orange and Facebook was down the other day but only for 24 hours and it's fixed for both of us now I thought it would have been fixed for everyone.

Although I suppose you are too busy hunting for bedbugs to use Facebook!

I have rang them, every day. I just get told the same thing. Husband is having same problem.

FB have just posted a comment "We are experiencing an issue with a third-party networking provider that is making it difficult for some of you to connect to Facebook. We are in contact with this provider and working to fix the issue as soon as possible."

Orange are working with Facebook to sort it out asap, it's now working for the majority of people

I don't understand why just a specific website would be down just on orange. If you can access other websites via orange but not facebook then this cannot surely be orange's fault unless they are doing something sinister to actively BLOCK the site!

This post on another forum might help explain.

So it looks like a problem caused by orange's use of dynamic, rather than fixed IP addresses (as ipv4 address space is limited). Hopefully once ipv6 gets rolled out then each customer will get a unique IP address so this will not happen again.
