Why does firefox keep throwing me off of websites while page loads?

I have not had this problem before with other phones. I began using firefox again today with my Samsung Galaxy Centura. Occasionally, while a page was loading, I would suddenly find myself off the web and at my phone's home screen (not FF homescreen). I disabled the cookie destroyer add on but that did nothing to help. The only other add on's I have are anti-FB phishing and Ad block. I have always used these without incident. What could be chronically throwing me off the internet? My ram is fine, memory,cache, etc. Thank you for any suggestions you may have.

Hi herself, Thank you for your question. I am curious what your timeout value is in the about:config page. Does your connection take a long time to load normally? Does it happen on your data or on a wifi connection?

The network.http.connection-retry-timeout default is 250 and the connection timeout is 90 seconds. After this try to reload the page.

Is there a site this is happening regularly and the internet is fine? I think it is 5126, but not sure if this is bytes? What site is it happening the most on?

Happy to help.
