  • Try opening a command prompt (Administrator is preferred) and do:
    tracert graph.oculus.com

    This should provide you some information about where along the connection-line you are having issues (this is likely a problem with your local firewall, or with your ISP's routing).

    You can also open up your web browser and enter:
    http://graph.oculus.com:80

    This will hit the HTTP (not HTTPS) endpoint at graph.oculus.com on port 80 (not port 443). If this succeeds (and you get a JSON message back that you can read) then there is likely an issue with you being able to connect over HTTPS to Oculus. Check your local firewall and proxy settings.

    Additionally you can try in your web browser:
    https://graph.oculus.com:443

    This will hit the HTTPS endpoint on port 443 (which is exactly what the Oculus Store program is trying to do, albiet with a proper token and whatnot). If you're able to access this from your web browser, then there's a problem with the Oculus Store program (perhaps your local firewall or proxy is blocking it).



  • Check your local firewall and proxy settings.



    I'm having the same problem as the OP, and I'm pretty sure it's due to a proxy. I'm using the rift for research purposes and the PC I'm using is on its own little university research network which uses a proxy. 
    Do you have any suggestions on how to make the proxy allow connections to the graph.oculus.com domain?
  • The saddest part is that once you are logged in once, you don't ever need to use anything from the web ever again. Except the occasional update.

    Hacky worckaround : use a usb wifi dongle to connect to the 4G of your phone. Log in. Remove the dongle.
    Then you can use it for anything not facebook purpose :
    Sadly your activity won't be sent to facebook, you won't be able to see your friends online or use the wonderful oculus store.
    And your system events will be completely cluttered to the point that for the first time in my career I looked for a way to disallow an App to write in the windows log.
