Firefox keeps going into offline mode

Firefox goes into offline mode on a regular basis - not always, but usually several times per day. I've already set network.manage-offline-status to false (actually, it was already set that way when I checked it). It appears to happen more when I move off of a tab and then come back to it. I've uninstalled and wiped all traces for Firefox and re-installed - same result.

How can this mode be completely disabled?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

I've called the big guys to help you. Good luck.

What kind of internet connection are you using and what network connection to the router?

Is that a built-in network card or is this an USB connection or otherwise use software drivers?
