I have been accessing Facebook etc... for several years using verizon wireless connection, suddenly
i can not connect (phone and laptop), I CAN get to yahoo mail, my banking accounts.. etc.
The connection has timed out
when i disable wifi on my phone, facebook connects correctly.
The server at www.facebook.com is taking too long to respond.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
when attempting to connect to facebook or google, i get a system message, 'one or more missing protocols'.
ping facebook.com and google.com works fine.
