I just turned on Firefox's free VPN, but I didn't see a way to choose a particular server. I'd like to watch some videos from other countries, but those providers won't let me watch them unless they think I'm in their country. I can do this with other VPNs because I can choose a server that is in that country. Why can't I do that in Firefox? Or can I?

The VPN works if I Enable DNS over HTTPS using Default Protection, however if I select Max Protection and use Cloudflare, it does not work as it cannot resolve DNS.

If I disable the VPN or select Defualt Protection, DNS works again.

The Firefox built-in VPN button disappears from my toolbar as well as from my customized toolbar options.

I wonder what is happening and I would like to recover it.

I just installed the new built-in VPN - and it appears to show as running in my Mozilla Accounts page (???).

HOWEVER, that is the only place I see it!!

No icon/display panel anywhere (not showing in Customization of toolbar option either) to see usage, turn on/off, etc.??

Hello, I am experiencing an issue where the built-in Firefox VPN feature has completely disappeared from my browser interface. I cannot see the icon on the toolbar, and the feature is not active. Could you please clarify if this feature has been geo-restricted or temporarily disabled for certain regions, or if there is another hidden preference I need to modify to restore it? Thank you for your assistance.

The new Firefox built-in VPN, rolled out to Australia this week, is not redirecting to the chosen country location.

Despite selecting either US or UK in the country list, websites are still identifying me as located in Australia.

For example, despite VPN being on and US selected, cunard.com still redirects me to my home location of Australia (see https://www.cunard.com/en-au in address bar). Screenshot attached. Other websites similar.

First of all I've noticed that even logging in to the account management page doesn't work with my vpn on. So of course sync itself doesn't either. It works perfectly fine with it off though. Is there an IP address that I can add to split tunneling to allow only the sync/FF account manager through my vpn? Or another way I'm not aware of? I'd rather not have to allow the whole browser through my vpn if possible.

The Question refers to the Firefox built-in VPN being not available in enterprise environments. Background: My PC is being used strictly for private terms. System locale is German. OS is Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Firefox is version 150.0 The Windows installation is Domain joined. Firefox is being used with a domain-users windows account. When about:policies is being opened in Firefox the information is displayed "The Enterprise Policies service is inactive." The Firefox built-in VPN feature does not seem to be present in this installation of Firefox. No other VPN services are being used on that machine or in my network-environment.

Hello,

I'm using version 151.0.1 (64-bit) in France. I don't see the VPN configuration prompt in the top-right corner of my Firefox toolbar, nor do I see the VPN icon in the toolbar… What should I do, please?

Thank you in advance for your help

The way you use VPN is you can either have it turned off, or turned on with exceptions you can put in a list. I'd like to be able to do the opposite, have it mostly turned off, except for some websites that require one to view. This is a QoL feature I would like in a future update.

Currently the built-in VPN operates via a blacklist system. Where it is turned on browser wide, with exception of sites you manually add to the blacklist where it will turn itself off when on those sites.

To preserve the allotted 50gb data limit for using the VPN, I would ideally need to turn the vpn off of every website that I don't need it to be on which is extremely tedious even if it's a one-time annoyance.

It would be better if instead(or in addition to) we had a whitelist option where we could have the VPN not be active browser wide, with exception of any site we add to the whitelist. I would much prefer this because there's only a handful of sites that I would need the VPN to be on.
