This happened a month ago and it has been happening frequently ever since. I currently have the latest version of Firefox (41.0.2), and I'm running Windows 10 on my laptop. I'm not sure why Firefox keeps dropping the connection, because Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge is working A-OK. Can this be solved?
