Firefox Community Forum

I'm on the local network. When I use Firefox to download a very small .docx file, the download gets stuck and doesn't move, taking a while to complete. But with Edge, it downloads almost instantly. Please help resolve this issue.

On Mac but not on Safari Firefox buffers for minutes before connecting. I’ve tried clearing the cache with no improvement. Until recently I never had this problem and as I said there’s no problem on Safari.

Hello,

I am having major issues with Firefox speeds, Mainly upload speeds. On Edge I am getting 400 up & down (no issues at all). However, on Firefox upload speed is 144 Mbps, same on private windows. The only issue is with Firefox. Windows is up to date and Firefox version is 139.0.4 (64-bit)

Attached comparison screenshots for reference.

Below are the steps i performed:

=========================

Firefox Troubleshoot Mode Test: Download: 411.71 Mbps (Full Speed) Upload: 173.03 Mbps (Still Bottlenecked) Extensions Disabled Manually (Normal Firefox): No significant improvement. Hardware Acceleration Toggle (Normal Firefox): No significant improvement.

=========================

New Temporary Firefox Profile Test: Download: ~333 Mbps Upload: ~190 Mbps Problem persists even with a clean profile.

=========================

Temporarily Disable Windows Firewall Test: Resulted in ~349 Mbps Down / ~148 Mbps Up. Firewall re-enabled.

=========================

Could someone let me know how to get this fixed. Creating a new profile should have fixed issued assuming one of the extensions was causing the bottleneck. But even with a new profile its not making any difference.

Once I visit any web site that uses HTTPS there is approximately a 90% chance it'll take seconds or even minutes to secure the connection. This never happens on other browsers as they load such pages instantaneously.

I already cleaned my data up and removed the extensions, both suspected and innocent bystanders, to no avail.

As stated in the title, I'm using Firefox 139.0.1 x64 on Windows 11 (24H2, build 26100.4061). This started happening after an automatic Firefox update, I never changed anything in my system configuration.

Firefox is no longer compatible with my bank's system. I can't log in with the secure access code the bank sends to verify my identity when using Firefox. The bank says it is a problem with Firefox. Other browsers work flawlessly ... are you working on a solution? I only use Firefox unless forced to use something else ...

I'm using Mac OS 11.7.10. Firefox desktop no longer allows me to browse the internet. It just keeps spinning wheels. I've downloaded the newest version and it still crashes. What can I do?

Suddenly this morning Firefox stopped connecting to any websites. It never gives an error message, it just tries to connect forever. Chrome and Edge can both access the internet without problems. I'm running Windows 11 Pro, and here's what I've tried so far:

Malwarebytes disabled Firewall disabled Turned off all add-ons/extensions Firefox uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, Windows, Malwarebytes, etc all updated Cache & cookies cleared Refresh Proxy use disabled IPv6 enabled DNS prefetching set to "true" Full malware scan by Malwarebytes Computer restarted (several times)

Any other ideas? Thanks!

I am having difficulty trying to view a website. I receive the following message whenever I try to view this website:

"Suspected Phishing This website has been reported for potential phishing.

Phishing is when a site attempts to steal sensitive information by falsely presenting as a safe source."

There are two buttons beneath this message, the one on the left which reads "Learn More," the one on the right which reads "Ignore & Proceed." Yet when I click on either of the buttons a blank white page appears.

The web address in the URL field also changes from the website I originally selected to the following:

https://www.smartredirect.de/redir/clickGate.php?u=IgKHHLBT&m=1&p=8vZ5ugFkSx&t=vHbSdnLT&st=&s=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.brutaltops.com%2F&r=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3DBrutalTops.com%26sca_esv%3D9a8e8f6bd3ba345e%26source%3Dhp%26ei%3DHMO2Z6SJBaqWwbkP7JzXUA%26iflsig%3DACkRmUkAAAAAZ7bRLHc87-cSI48xaawgAj9EjL-Nm71U%26ved%3D0ahUKEwikh43Vx9GLAxUqSzABHWzOFQoQ4dUDCBM%26oq%3DBrutalTops.com%26gs_lp%3DEgdnd3Mtd2l6Ig5CcnV0YWxUb3BzLmNvbUjNa1CbCliBWXABeACQAQCYAW-gAfcKqgEEMTYuMbgBDMgBAPgBAZgCCaAClwaoAgrCAgoQABgDGOoCGI8BwgIKEC4YAxjqAhiPAcICERAuGIAEGJECGNEDGMcBGIoFwgILEAAYgAQYkQIYigXCAg4QLhiABBixAxjRAxjHAcICBRAuGIAEwgIREC4YgAQYsQMY0QMYgwEYxwHCAgsQLhiABBjRAxjHAcICCBAAGIAEGLEDwgIXEC4YgAQYkQIYsQMY0QMYgwEYxwEYigXCAgUQABiABMICCxAAGIAEGLEDGIMBwgIIEC4YgAQYsQPCAg4QLhiABBixAxiDARiKBcICCxAAGIAEGJIDGIoFwgILEC4YgAQYsQMY1ALCAhEQABiABBiRAhixAxiDARiKBcICFBAuGIAEGJECGLEDGIMBGNQCGIoFwgIREC4YgAQYkQIYxwEYigUYrwHCAg8QABiABBixAxgKGEYY-QHCAgoQABiABBixAxgKwgINEAAYgAQYsQMYgwEYCsICBxAuGIAEGArCAgcQABiABBgKwgIFEAAY7wWYAxPxBQrZJeqRYy6tkgcDNi4zoAeUYg%26sclient%3Dgws-wiz

Why would I not be able to view this website (and others too) with Firefox but am able with Chrome? I want to be able use Firefox, as Chrome will not allow use of an extension that Firefox will.

Please tell me how this problem may be fixed.

I have tracked down the situation where my Internet download speeds drop from about 598 Mbps to around 267 Mbps after I open Mozilla. I am running a desktop computer with Windows 11 (updated) and Edge and Chrome. I am hardwired directly to my Xfinity modem (no WiFi connection). When I close Mozilla, my speed goes to 598 Mbps, and when I open Mozilla, my speed drops to 267 Mbps. This seems excessive and unacceptable. Are there any settings or anything to adjust, not to have Mozilla be such a drain on my system?

С ноября 2024 г наблюдается проблема : не загружается игра рыцари и принцессы. Несколько месяцев мне говорили что разбираются а сегодня написали что проблем нет из службы поддержки игры и отправили решать проблему с браузером в службу поддержки браузера mozilla ссылаясь на то что он не корректно работает и у меня старая ос. Страница загрузки https://vk.com/app4019000_26034467 .Мои попытки объяснить что проблема исключительно с их продуктом и у меня все программы игры и приложения работают ни к чему не приводят. Помогите решить проблему я уже не знаю что делать.

As of February 13, 2025 the front page of the Washington Post website does not load correctly in Firefox 115.20.0esr in Mac OS 10.13.6. The problem persists even in safe mode. Thank you.

I have noticed some minor changes in Google Maps. Unfortunately, they have affected the support of Maps in Firefox (135.0): maps are displayed without any names (towns, streets, objects, etc.). Since this bug is not present in the support of Maps in Edge, I think that Firefox requires a correction. When can we expect a fix?

For weeks now google translate has not been working as it should, when I translate something it usually defaults to translating it to English, but if I change the language to any other than English it still only shows the English translation (or whatever language it got "stuck" on).

I have signed out and in of my google account, have the latest version of Firefox (134.0.2), refreshing the pages doesn't help. I don't have this issue in other browsers.
