I am trying to turn on the Firefox built-in VPN. Instructions say click on the VPN icon in the toolbar. I have no such icon in my toolbar and I when go to Customize Toolbar, there is no VPN icon for the Firefox built-in VPN.

How do I get this icon to appear?

Hello everyone,

For the past few days, I've been seeing the following banner below the address bar on ardmediathek.de :

This website may not work with a VPN. Try signing in or turning VPN off while you use this website.

At first, I assumed this was some kind of anti-VPN or geo-blocking script from the media library itself. However, according to transvision.flod.org it appears to be related to Firefox's ipp-activator-breakage-sign-in-warning feature.

I don't have a VPN, proxy, or DoH enabled, and the VPN button isn't being displayed to me (yet) either. So why is IP Protection interfering here in the first place?

What I think of the ever-growing number of supposedly intelligent services that keep tinkering away in the background and seem to believe they need to take over users' tasks is probably better left unsaid. ;-)

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Best regards, Martin

Hi Team,I am writing to ask about the rollout timeline for the free Firefox VPN feature in India. I noticed India is currently missing from the supported countries list. Are there any plans to launch this feature for Indian users soon?Thanks!

One Win 10 laptop has Firefox 151.0.4 64bit and I've got the Firefox VPN working on it. My other Win 10 laptop has Firefox 152.0 32bit for some reason, and I've logged on Mozilla but all I can find in VPN requires payment. I don't understand the diff that the higher version is 32bit and I can't find the FREE VPN . What should I do?

I'm trying to use the built in VPN. I'm signed in but it just keeps returning me to the same page. The VPN icon doesn't have a green tick - it keeps the little black cross next to it. What am I doing wrong?

Hi there!

Firefox did an update today and the firefox VPN option disappeared, there is no option in settings or the menu for the VPN any longer.

Thank you!

I had the built-in VPN in Firefox enabled. I used it successfully for about a month, but this evening it disappeared from my toolbar. How can I restore access to this feature?

I am trying to use the free VPN in my browser. I have requested IPs in multiple countries and so far all work except the U.S. When I request a U.S. IP address a check shows I am in Chile. When I travel I need a U.S. IP address. What is the issue there?

Hi, I enabled the included Firefox VPN, but it only allows you to choose an entire country, and not very accurately or reliably. The help pages direct me to use Mozilla VPN to do that, so I enabled it, only to be told it's only available on Windows. How can I set my location to something else for a website on a Mac? Thanks.
