Apologies for the seemingly arcane nature of this suggestion, but could you see whether there is more detailed information about this problem in the Browser Console? Here's how:

  • Open the Browser Console using Ctrl+Shift+j or the Developer menu
  • Once the console settles down, click the Clear button on the top bar
  • Leaving the console window open, switch back over to Facebook and reload (Ctrl+r
  • Switch back over to the console and look for security-related messages. These might have a red triangle at the left. Please copy/paste the messages into a reply.

By the way, I guess it goes without saying that your device may detect rogue hotspots anywhere you are and you should verify with the establishment -- whether it's a coffee shop, hotel, airport, or other business -- that you are connecting to their hotspot. Assuming you don't want strangers in your Facebook account!
