When online via WiFi, Firefox repetedly attempts to connect via dialup, with error dialog box returning every 15 sec. or so.

At home, I use dial-up. When I'm visiting, or at certain stores, I use a Wi-Fi connection. When I'm on Wi-Fi, Firefox does not fully recognise it. It will, eventually, use the Wi-Fi connection, load pages, etc. But it keeps trying to dial in, even while connected via Wi-Fi! Closing the dialog boxes only works for a few seconds, then it tries again, and again, and again, and again... Arrgh! N.B. Could this be Weatherfox connecting to update weather info using its own connection, rather than piggybacking on whatever Firefox is doing?

You can try to swap the order of the connections and place the Wi-Fi connection at the top to see how that works.
