FaceTime worked a few days ago and today when I tried it, it just would not connect. I have an iphone 5 a d I tried face timing with my wife's iPhone 4S and with my mother in laws 4s. I tried it over wifi and over cellular. When I try to connect, it takes over a minute to even ring on my phone. The. A few more seco e's for it to do g on the receiving g phone. Then when they try to answer it just says connecting for 30 seconds or so and then says connection. Lost.

It's crazy because this worked fine a couple days ago and we have not done any is updates since then. All devices are on ios 6.

Known problem.
 
Omg thank you. That was making me crazy. Now I know it's nothing on our end.
 
Are you sure it's down?

FaceTime on my Mini iPad stopped working, but works fine on my iPhone and my iPad3. Any clues as to how to fix this?
TIA:(
