How do I disable Optimum Online Search?

Are you trying to search from the address bar or the search bar ?

From the address bar. But the addresss bar also doubles as the search bar, doesn't it? When I type something in the address bar and hit enter, the Optimum Online Search Page opens.

Not necessarily. In Firefox, a search in the address bar brings up a result from your internet service provider. If you are looking for Chrome-like functionality in the address bar, you could install an add-on such as Omnibar. I use the search bar, it works good enough for me.

Thank you for your reply. I tried installing Omni Bar but it isn't compatible with the latest version of Firefox. I guess I'll use Dolphin or Chrome until Mozilla fixes this problem.

I am sorry but I am talking about Firefox for Android, not the regular desktop browser.

I know on regular Firefox Desktop fromfx23 the search bar setting affects the address bar result, I do not know if it is the same on Firefox mobile on Android
