    Orange IPs blocked by Facebook?

    Is anyone else having problems accessing facebook from Orange devices? It seems from my googling that a whole range of Orange IPs is being blocked by facebook for being associated with "abusive behaviour". Does anyone know any more?

    Do you need to get your content bar turned off? Pr0n and social networking are both scourges of the internet it seems...

    Re: Orange IPs blocked by Facebook?

    There was an issue on friday (17/9/10), you've probably got it working but if you havent make sure your using the orangeinternet APN, power cycle your handset (forces the phone to reconnect to the network and get a different IP) and try a different browser like opera mini

    Interestingly Opera Mini apparently uses its own proxy servers which compress data, this gets sent to the browser on your phone and decoded - this would appear to facebook as data requested from a different ip bypassing the orange issue
