Hi,

It could be that the network you are connected to is blocking Viber's traffic.

1. First, please try uninstalling and reinstalling Viber when connecting to a few different WiFi networks (in order to pinpoint the source of the problem). What are the results?
2. Also, please make sure the following ports are enabled ("forwarded") on your routers or firewalls:
TCP: 5242 + 4244
UDP: 5243 + 9785

(if you are not sure how to enable ports, you may contact your router manufacturer)

Hi. Thanks for reply.
I have done all your options before. The ports are open. I tried 3 different wifi networks but it doesn't work. When someone call my viber, it rings!!!!! But it cannot connect to its server. There is another one who have the same problem and the same phone!

Exactly the same problem with my Viber and Iphone 4 IOS 6 . Also note that my wife and son are using Viber using the same WiFi network which mine is not working and all the time I'm receiving " No connectivity " Error so there is no issue with firewall ports and network , as my wife and son are using viber using the same network . Also only my IOS is 6.1.2 , but their IOS is 6.0.1 !!! so it can be IOS problem ?
Please help !
thanks

@Approy -

About a month ago, Viber was blocked in Iran completely (and all of the users received the same error message you see now). Then, it seemed like it was working again.

Maybe the block is back in place now? Have you checked with your Internet Service Provider?

@nararou -

Please test Viber on a few different WiFi networks, in order to rule out the possibility that it is a problem with your specific network.

I don't think so! People here are useing this app! My friend and I have iPhone and the same problem but Im not sure if its the reason of " No Connectivity " error! Others with HTC and samsung phones are using this app without problem! That' s very odd. I hope it works again.
Anyway Thanks for help.

Last time, as well, it seemed like the block was "gradual" and was not affecting everyone in Iran at once.

We join your hopes that this is not the case. Unfortunately, there is nothing more that we can suggest in the case that you keep getting the "no connectivity" error. It is out of our hands :(

We hope to get good news from you regarding this issue.

Hi there,
This might happened due to a momentary server issue, or a network issue.
Please try to restart Viber, then try again.

If it still doesn't work, test Viber on a few different WiFi networks. What are the results?

Hi there,
I am a Viber representative here on MacRumors.

Your device has a Inter processor, and this might be the source of the problem.
We now offer a temporary solution for this problem. You can find a fixed version for Intel devices here: http://helpme.viber.com/index.php?/...g-issues-with-your-intel-device-and-viber-235

Please let us know if this helped :)

Hi,

What error message exactly are you getting when trying to call someone through Viber?

It could be that the network you are connected to is blocking Viber's traffic.

1. First, please try uninstalling and reinstalling Viber when connecting to a few different WiFi networks (in order to pinpoint the source of the problem). What are the results?
2. Also, please make sure the following ports are enabled ("forwarded") on your routers or firewalls:

(if you are not sure how to enable ports, you may contact your router manufacturer)

Hey I got confused I don't understand why it doesn't work!!!! Is it possible that viber has a problem with iPhone?! Here in Iran I asked many of viber users. Those who have iPhone have the same problem as I. Other cellphones work good! So what can you guess? Why this " no connectivity" error appears whenever I open viber?!

Ok so I'm just wondering if its possible for someone to hack into your viber account? Cuz I'm pretty sure it happened to me... My friend that I was chatting with said they seen a pic of some random guy as my display picture.. And they took a screen shot and sent it to me.. I have never in my life seem this guy, not do I have any pic of him on my phone.. So how would it be possible for someone to put a pic of a random guy on viber for my display pic? I didn't know this I thought I had my picture up there.. And I saw it as my pic... But my friend saw it as this random guy.. So again is it possible for someone to hack into your viber account and change your display picture without you seeing or knowing?

First, please test Viber on a few different WiFi networks in order to find the source of the problem.

In the past, Iran already blocked Viber. It might be that the block is back now, and it affects users gradually (not all at once). Unfortunately, if this is the case, then we (Viber) have nothing to do to help :(

@Carmey22 -

Your Viber account should be safe and we have not yet encountered complaints about suspicion of hacking.

However, we still invite you to report this issue to our support team at http://bit.ly/ukGVJ0 (when you submit the ticket, please make sure to add the URL of our conversation). They will investigate this issue further.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It seems like once again, the authorities in Lebanon have decided to block Viber in the whole country, and that is why you are experiencing this issue. Unfortunately there is not much we can do to help :(

You may try contacting the authorities and ask for the reason for this block.

This is great news!
We are happy to hear this. Please let us know if there are any changes/problems in the future.

@mirnays -
Like Iran, Syria, and some other countries in the region, we suspect that the authorities in Lebanon have decided to block Viber in the whole country, and that is why you are experiencing this issue. Unfortunately there is not much we can do to help :(

The block seems to be gradual, and does not affect everyone at once (or not all of the ISPs).

You may try contacting the authorities and ask for the reason for this block.

Viber Not connecting to the Internet

Hi, I read through whole of the thread before posting and i have tried all the suggestions that have been posted in the thread. Since past two days i was unable to make any calls through viber but messages were going through fine. one of my collegues has the same phone as mine but his viber is working fine and he can make calls as well as send messages. so after trying every suggestion on this thread to no avail i decided to uninstall viber and then reinstall it again. It gave me the option type my number in so i can recieve the confirmation code but it gives me No Connectivity Error even though i am connected to the internet and it is all working fine. I have checked viber on various networks and still no good. i tried to reboot my device as well. Is there anything that i am missing? i changed the network port settings on my home wifi but that too didnt help. Please suggest.:( I am using Iphone 4S. i am based in Pakistan and i am using Ufone as my network provider.

@Amr Helmy -

The source of this issue could greatly vary. Please read this short page in our HelpDesk, outlining some possible workarounds that will help reboot synchronization of the contact list: http://bit.ly/rRtPqk

(The instructions refer to iPhone, but are relevant to all phones nevertheless).

@AAD1983 -

IF THIS ERROR OCCURS ON 3G, THE CELLULAR NETWORK:

Some mobile operators across the world block Viber on their 3G network. Usually this happens when users have a "simple" data plan (or a prepaid contract), meaning they didn't pay extra for using VoIP on their 3G network.

In order to verify this, we recommend to:
1. Test Viber on a few different WiFi networks, and see that it works fine.
2. Contact your cell company and confirm this with them.

IF THIS ERROR OCCURS ON WIFI:

It could be that the network you are connected to is blocking Viber's traffic.

1. First, please try uninstalling and reinstalling Viber when connecting to a few different WiFi networks (in order to pinpoint the source of the problem). What are the results?
2. Also, please make sure the following ports are enabled ("forwarded") on your routers or firewalls:
TCP: 5242 + 4244
UDP: 5243 + 9785

(if you are not sure how to enable ports, you may contact your router manufacturer)

* If it still fails, please specify what country you're located in, and which cellular network you're subscribed to.
