I'm using Windows 11 152.0.4 Firefox version I'm in Australia

I am using Firefox’s new built‑in VPN (not the standalone Mozilla VPN app). When I switch between USA, UK, or Germany, the browser successfully routes traffic through those regions even though the VPN icon remains grey. However, when I select Canada, Firefox appears to accept the region change but no websites load at all. The browser becomes effectively offline.

The following error appears in the console:

Code SearchSuggestionController found an unexpected string value: HTTP error 2

1. dedupeAndReturnResults moz-src:///toolkit/components/search/SearchSuggestionController.sys.mjs:639

fetch moz-src:///toolkit/components/search/SearchSuggestionController.sys.mjs:36 Troubleshooting already attempted:

Disabled DNS-over-HTTPS

Cleared DNS and HTTP caches

Tested in Private Window

Tested in Troubleshoot Mode (Safe Mode)

Restarted Firefox

Switched between multiple regions

Confirmed that USA, UK, and Germany work normally

Only Canada fails consistently

None of these steps resolved the issue.

Expected behaviour: Canada region should function like the other regions and allow normal browsing.

Actual behaviour: Selecting Canada results in:

Blank pages

No network activity

SearchSuggestionController errors

Browser appears offline

Other regions continue to work normally

Conclusion: This appears to be a server-side failure or misconfiguration in the Canada proxy endpoint used by Firefox’s built‑in VPN. The issue is reproducible and persists across troubleshooting modes.

Please investigate the Canada endpoint for the built‑in VPN.

I downloaded Firefox today and saw there was a VPN option but it is not working. It asks me to sign in and per the instructions the clickable icon at the top should now have an option to enable but it just asks me to sign in again. I am from Canada and it says my region is available for this program.

The VPN was working a couple of days ago, but now if I switch it on, the browser is unable to use any website. The country is displayed in the bottom left corner as "Australia" even though I set the VPN to Canada.

The built in VPN worked great for me for a couple of months, but now whenever I try to turn it on, it starts with the "Get Started" screen, which takes me to a page to confirm my account. When I press continue the VPN button just goes back to the "Get Started" screen & the loop repeats. I've tried signing out & refreshing my Firefox installation but I keep getting the same result. Before it started doing this the button to turn on the VPN was appearing but would not react to clicks.

I saw the update that you added vpn to firefox, but I can't use it. It doesn't show up in the toolbar anywhere and there are no vpn options anywhere in settings. When I try and create a second profile THEN I get the vpn option but when I click on it it says that I can only use it with the original profile.

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.
