Firefox Community Forum

I'm just trying to figure out how I can tell if my up-to-date version of Firefox is actually using its own VPN. It said it would when I installed it, but I can find anything that says, yes, it's running.

Hallo, nur eine Frage. Bisher kostete VPN ja ene monatliche Gebühr. Entfällt die nun, da VPN im Browser generell angeboten wird? Und wenn ja, muss ich mein Abo kündigen oder erfolgt das automatisch. Vielen Dank.

Beste Grüße Christian

Good evening,

I was trying to use the VPN option on the Fire Fox browser and it will not let me use it. I press the get started tab, sign in, and when it asks me to turn it on it simply just shows me the get started window again and it doesn't change. Is there anyway to fix this? Please let me know.

Thank you,

My Firefox browser shows the built-in icon (x VPN) in the upper right of the screen. If I click on the icon it starts the process that results in successfully logging into my mozilla account and the screen prints out the following: Next: Turn on VPN

One more step to boost your browser’s privacy. Go to the open panel and turn it on.

But the screen shows no open panel! If I click on the (x VPN) again, the process starts over.

I have checked Settings > Privacy & Security and made sure that the entry "Allow Firefox to improve features, performance, and stability between updates" is checked. I have made sure that browser.ipProtection.enabled is set to true; browser.ipProtection.everOpenedPanel is set to false; and I see no entry for browser.ipProtection.openedPanelWithLocation.

I have signed out completely from the Mozilla account, restarted the browser, and logged back in to restart the process using (x VPN) but it still doesn't work.

I love Firefox for so many reasons. I was really excited to learn about the new VPN, but it didn't work. So I recently turned it back on and it still doesn't work. When I set it to an available country, then go to one of their websites, it still says the website is not available in my region. It still knows I'm here, and not there. What should I do? I'm thinking of buying Nord VPN, but I'd rather start here if I can.

i click the VPN button and sign in, it tells me i have signed in successfully and turn on with the open panel, but there is no open panel to turn it on it just loops back to me signing in

I used to have VPN on my computer. Then I got a technician in to find out why it was running so slowly. He said it was because of the VPN, so I removed it. So my question is: Will Firefox VPN slow my computer down?

I have been a subscriber to Firefox for a number of years, while using a different proprietary VPN. I changed my VPN service to Mozilla VPN a few months ago paying a an additional fee for the service. I learned shortly after that Firefox had a built in VPN and sometimes it appears to me as if that's what I'm using. Question: Is "Firefox built-in VPN"the same program /service as "Mozilla VPN"? Should I in fact have paid an additional subscription fee? If so, I do not seem to have a record of the terms of this fee and how often it must be renewed. Could you please clarify this situation.
