Facebook/FIOS SLOW

[blazin]

Anybody else having a major problem with Facebook lately on FIOS?

It's practically unreachable from 5pm - midnight, super slow.

I found this thread: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r25813544-Northeast-Facebook-Latency

Just wondering if anybody on WB is dealing with this.

as soon as I hit glbx.com I get hung up and tfbnw is facebook servers.

m.facebook.com is fast

Yes. There is definitely a problem. I've been on that DSLR thread since it started happening.

My findings are identical to yours. I found it works great late at night. But during the peak hours (after 4PM) it sucks a dick.

I really can't test it much during the day because I am often out at work, and when I am home the last thing I need is my boss to see me on Facebook. Note to self: don't friend anyone on Facebook who could end up becoming your boss.

I tweeted about this yesterday. Is it only effecting FIOS customers?

 

[Sinn Fein]

It appears to be affecting Verizon DSL customers as well.

 

[Sinn Fein]

It appears to be an issue with Verizon resolving 69.XXX.XXX.XXX IP's.

Some have modified their hosts file:

1. Added to my C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file:

66.220.147.44 facebook.com
66.220.147.44 www.facebook.com

2. Closed all my browsers and ran ping www.facebook.com -n 100. No packet loss.

3. Reopened Firefox and Facebook came right up.

As of now, Facebook is loading quickly.

I am home for lunch and just added it, seems to be working fine. The real test will be after 5PM today when I am off work.

 

[blazin]

the hosts file entry seemed to do it for me too.

It is fine on Cable here on Long Island. I have a friend in Jersey who has complained for two days how bad Facebook's website is, but not sure if she is on FIOS.

 

[caniseeyourtaint]

Last night it was slow as fuck for me....but I was on my old Verizon air card at work. Still...it was never that slow, and no other site was dragging ass like FB was. Was around 11pm or so.

 

[Turfmower]

Im Trying to log on face book now on Fios and it Stucks balls it just spins and spins

 

[TreeFortRichard]

Fios in boston...No issues here...other than maybe a tad slow...But there are times when it seems shitty...I always thought it was facebook...I'll see if i can jam it up

Wife just said it's been flaky for about a week.

 

[blazin]

the first one you hit the 66. IP, then the 69.

ive been smooth sailing all night with the hosts entry to go to 66.
