Facebook and Instagram Intermittent Loading

Hello, I’m having the exact same problem on my mobile devices as this post that got zero comments https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-WiFi-Routers/Problems-with-Facebook-and-Instagram/td-p/4971...

When everything else behaves as expected, it is hard to see how a router could cause this sort of thing. Maybe that explains the silence.

 

Have you checked its logs to see if it is blocking sites?

Yep. No blocked sites. I know, this is such a weird problem.

      Had the same problem with my Netgear orbi wifi. By connecting to another wifi and then going to Instagram on that different wifi and then going back to the Netgear orbi Instagram worked again.
