Instagram, Facebook & Whatsapp Not Loading On Home Wifi

[Nicola2023]

Hi, 

Been trying to resolves this issue for 2 weeks now and not getting anyway over the phone or on the chat function & nobody is providing a solution. 

Instagram, Facebook & Whatsapp stopped loading when on home wifi on Saturday 4th Feb. Everything works fine on mobile network and on any other wifi but none of the above apps (or via browser) work on any device via our home wifi. 

 I logged into the router & noticed numerous errors on the maintenance log (DNS name resolution failure). I have literlaly tried everything and cant bare to spend another hour on the phone with no outcome. I thought a new router to test may work but if we cant get the issue resolved as a matter of urgency we are going to have to cancel. 

Regards

Nicola

Hi Nicola

Have you received the replacement router?

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Hi Nicola

No problem 🙂

You just connect up the new router using the new cables and filter and then connect your devices using the wireless password from the back of the router.

Thanks

Thanks Debbie, 

Is there anything I need to do with the new router or just a case of unplugging the old and plugging in the new? 

thanks for your help so far, much appreciated.

Hi Nicola

No problem. The router is on its way, please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive.

There will be no charge for the router, please let us know how you get on.

Thanks

Hi Debbie, 

Yes please send the router as I don't think that will solve the issue as the setting has never been changed and was working fine before Saturday 4th.

Presuming there is no charge for the router?

Thanks

Hi Nicola

No problem. Would you like me to order the router now just in case this doesn't work?

[Nicola2023]

Thanks

Hi Nicola

Just one last check before I send the router, could you try changing the firewall level to medium in the router settings?

[Nicola2023]

Hi Debbie, 

Tried factory reset numberous times with the pin. Even logged into the router and did a factory reset that way but no joy. 

Thanks

Hi Nicola

Thanks for confirming. Please can you try a factory reset (pin hole reset for ten seconds)

If you are experiencing the same issue then I can send a replacement router for testing.

Thanks
