Is Facebook Down 'at the moment'?To check if Facebook is up/down "at the moment," you can go to a website called Downrightnow. See the Related Link for the URL.

Either their service is down - which rarely happens - and in that case you should just try later, or you have internet connections on your computer. If you're able to connect to other websites, then your computer is not the problem.

Another possibility is that you're trying to connect to Facebook via a computer/network that blocked Facebook (such as a work place, a school, etc.).

Some dates when Facebook was actually down:

On September 23, 2010, Facebook was showing DNS failure when you tried to reach their site. This seemed to be the case for most visitors.

Other general comments from our users about Facebook:

  • Facebook can be down or working at various times throughout the day due to server problems, overactivity, site problems, bugs, etc....
  • However, it should be pointed out that the servers of Facebook are rarely down and they last about 2 minutes (at most) when they are. If the servers are down, they forward you to a page telling you to come back later; when they maintain the site, they do it account by account, so the homepage is always working.
  • A good Internet connection is necessary to load the page, so if you can't access Facebook, check that there is nothing else using the Internet on your IP address. If it is always slow, contact your service provider.
  • Sometimes Facebook doesn't load due to the amount of cookies on your computer. If you have Vista, click Tools>Delete browsing history>Delete all.
