Since a day Firefox cannot load websites. It takes about 5 minutes to load a site. But I do not have the patience so I use Safari, which works ok. but I do prefer to use Firefox

See:

You can also try to reset (power off/on) the router.

  • Try this.
  • Type in the address bar about:config.
  • Accept the warning.
  • In the page that appears, in the Filter box, type network.http.max-connections.
  • Change the value to 32 (which is probably set to 256 in your case).
  • Close the about:config page.
  • Restart the browser.

Thanks for the help and ideas! I tried typing in the address bar about: config. No warning appeared; the browser could not recognize the info. I did find an explanation on google about 'about:config"..tough, so I will read tis more thoroughly & retry it later today. Than just now restarted the router.. this is not helping. Will let you know alter

about:config

No space in between : and config. Or just copy and paste the above.

Yes, now it is working: copied it, got the warnign, came in a list, altered the settings to 32. And works fine again.

Thanks!

Glad it worked.Just the mark post as helpful so that this thread moves to solved category.
