Firefox currently blocks port 10080 to protect against a presumed security threat. Linksys routers use port 10080 to allow users to log in to the guest network so Firefox has rendered Guest Network logins to be unaccessable forcing router owner to allow "guests" to log in to the the primary lan and potentially cause issues with the very network they are trying to protect from outside issues. Firefox needs to provide a way for guests to log into the guest network within their software... particularly in the ios and android versions of the Firefox apps. Please provide a reasonable workaround so that I don't put my network at risk by allowing guests to log in to my primary network.

Hi, I tried to update my Firefox Accounts secondary email, but I got the error message This email was already confirmed by another user." That does not seem likely, as no one else has access to my secondary email account. Obviously, there's something I don't grasp here. How do I fix this?

I am suddenly unable to access websites, some of which I've viewed for years, like Facebook and my email, for Pete's sake. What is going on? I'm told there's a security risk and there's nothing I can do. What has changed. This is distressing in the extreme. I have put virus protection in place, and use a VPN, so I feel reasonably secure in my online work. Something has changed at Firefox, what the heck is it, and how do I correct it?

I logged in to Firefox on my new computer and I know I had everything accept credit cards checked off to sync and have been logged in. I double checked everything and made sure to sync just in case. After logging in to Firefox on my new computer, it still shows everything that i had checked off to sync but it's not syncing anything and looks like a fresh install of Firefox with no account, even though I'm logged in and have synced. What am i doing wrong? I consider myself to be pretty competent when it comes to this stuff and I don't see what is wrong.

Firefox does not play videos from this website: https://texassports.com/index.aspx. Only showing a black box.

Edge and Chrome play the videos with no problem.

This problem exists on three different laptops, two W10s and one W7.

I am a long time user of Firefox and have never had this problem before.

What setting(s) do I need to change?

Previously with chrome I had 5 links pinned to the homepage, and that was all that was there. With Firefox, I can't figure out how to disable the history mixed in with the pinned links, or change the number of links displayed. All I can find is changing the number of rows, not columns per row which would at least be good, because I could just set the grid to fill to 1x5, instead of having the current minimum count of 1x8 links.

What has Firefox upgraded in security setting that is blocking so many of my websites, including many that surely are harmless, like Pinterest. Have those sites been hacked, is my account compromised, what's going on? I'm not a computer whiz, so I can't follow these lengthy suggestions about which I understand not a bit.

On occasion, I come across a web page that offers to send an email if you click on the link eg, I was researching regulations for personal care homes in GA and there was an option to send an email to the administrators to ask them for more information.

So, I click on the link and rather than getting the email address, firefox goes to open the "mail" application on my mac.

Well, I never use that application because it is too slow and bulky. I can't use basic text options like bolding or italics and such. Not to mention, it takes forever to load.

I use GMX for mail and it is accessed through Firefox. It is not an application that "lives" on my computer.

How can I get Firefox to respond to these email buttons on websites by going to GMX?

Thanks, Charles
