Facebook messenger always connecting and dropping out, unable to send messages?

[Android Central Question]

I've deleted and reinstalled messenger about 3 times now AND cleared the cache and I'm still getting the same issue. It seems to he only a messenger issue as I have no connection problems with any other of my tens of apps and have full bars and 4G.

Anyone experiencing this problem?

I've also barely been able to reach 4 hours SoT so could this have something to do with it!?
