Why are the webpages unavailable when I click on a link in Facebook?

[AC Question]

webpage unavailable when I click on a link on Samsung S5

Just recently, whenever I click on a link through Facebook or the like, the webpage always comes up as unavailable. I know the page is available as my Samsung Galaxy tablet is working fine so I guess it must be a setting or something that is stopping these pages from loading. I have cleared the caches, removed the antivirus but I now give up. Can anybody help me?

Welcome to Android Central! Which browser are you using? Does the browser otherwise navigate to other webpages without any difficulty?

Hello B.Diddy,

I'm not sure what browser I'm using (sorry thats not more helpful). All I know is that outside of any programme, the internet works fine, but clicking on a link always comes up with page unavailable!!

See what happens if you boot into Recovery Mode and wipe the cache partition, which won't erase any personal data: Reset: Samsung Galaxy S 5 | T-Mobile Support
