Switch DNS to google DNS.

maybe a virus problem or some parental control/similar software blocking facebook access for certain time period.

Look for parental settings in your router. There exists such settings which can do what you're facing.

^^if issue is router then no device should be able to access facebook at night but according to op his mobile works fine(assuming he meant mobile uses router too to connect to net).if this is not true then simply test by connecting any other device at night & if facebook works on it but not on laptop then problem is with laptop else with router.

Agree with whitestar_999. If you are using Facebook app to access facebook, try mobile browser instead (be it default one or opera or something else).

maybe some parental restrictions are at play, which can disable sites for a set time period.

If DNS change doesn‘t help, browse with Opera browser( with Turbo mode on)
