How do I change the timeout setting for connecting to a web server. I get the following message way too often: "The connection has timed out The server at xxx is taking too long to respond." This question is in the archives from 2015, but everything has changed and those about:config, search for "timeout" items aren't there anymore. I've tried a few there, but obviously not the right ones.
