Firefox link in email doesn't verify my sync account on new computer

I've been trying to sign into my Firefox sync account from a college campus computer. All of the email verifications I receive either tell me that the link is broken, or it tells me that the account is verified and that I can sync, but I can't. I have tried forcing the sync using tools (as stated in one of the help pages) however "sync now" is not an option. It only gives me "Sign in to sync" which of course make me verify my account. Additionally, every now and then the email won't even send when I click "resend." (I wait up to 10 minutes before trying again.)

If you are experiencing issues while using a public computer, it could be because the network administrator has disabled this function for security purposes.

I would recommend contacting your network administrator for further information and assistance on this issue.
