Trying to connect to Synology DSM, unable to connect with Firefox, but works fine in Chrome or Edge
Hello, I'm using a Synology NAS (DS220+) installed on my local network, behind my internet box). This NAS can be accessed both from the local network (https://192.168.1.nn:ppppp) and remotely across Internet (https://subdomain.domain:yyyyy). With Firefox I can access my NAS locally but not remotely. While this works fine with Chrome or Edge.
As my issue looks like another one on your support site ("Page won't load in Firefox, but works fine in any other browser", opened 7/1/21, 3:39AM), I applied part of the proposed solution: run Firefox in troubleshooting mode, cleared history, cookies, cache; did a refresh; removed then reinstalled Firefox, created a brand new profile. Without success.
Would you please have some ideas to help me? Thanks and regards Matteo

Hello,
My issue unexpectedly disappeared. Cannot imagine any reason why. But I no longer need help on this.
Regards Matteo
I have this problem, but I have external access disabled. So the only way in is via 192.168.x.y:5001
I get a prompt for a User name It then takes an age after entering that for it to come back with the password prompt. instant on edge) When the correct password is entered, it simply sits there forever, ticking away... (again It is instant working on edge - but I don't normally use edge, so this is a real pain connecting to the NAS
Any help appreciated

Sorry Dave, this is not the same issue as mine, I can't help. In my case, external access is allowed (limited to 2 explicitely defined countries) and it worked fine with Chrome and Edge while Firefox refused to connect. Gooe luck
