I had some internet connection problems. Now they are fixed BUT my previous homepage: www.yahoo.com does not open properly anymore. All other web pages work fine. When I try to open www.yahoo.com a message appears (probably from the internet provider) saying "Nointernet"...

Hi nstavrul,
Thank you for your screenshot. When you reset the homepage, did you delete the cached page in the history manager? Please search for this url and delete it, then request then reset the homepage one more time if yahoo.com reloads.
If this does not change the homepage, you can also check that none of the add ons that you have are blocking any preferences from saving. Some instructions on how to do this are in our knowledge base for how to troubleshoot in safe mode. Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode
How to fix preferences that won't save is another troubleshooting reference for the home page reference.
Please let us know if this helps.
