Select „no proxies” option. If it doesn’t help is most likely firewall which blocks it. Try disabling it and confectioning w/o it to see if that’s the case – and if it is, examine it’s rules so they allow Messenger (assuming you are connecting from home and not from some institution behind industrial firewall).
