FF now won't access facebook or amazon websites. FF worked yesterday but wouldn't access either site today. Both Google and MS Edge access both sites. I have cleared cash and reinstalled FF with no luck. Help Please

Is there a way to make the URL high lighting of the domain more obvious? I find that most people can barely see the highlighting and I'd like to make it obvious (bolder and red, or highlighted in yellow, for instance.)

Can this be done via userchrome.css?

Thanks,

at least 2 times a day firefox looses internet connection, and my internet is very strong and right next to my laptop, this is a problem i have had the last few months, but getting worse

Using Firefox as my browser, I have over the last few days been unable to maintain a connection with the internet.

You will please excuse me as I am a 70 year old with limited understanding of the interaction of the internet and its terminology.

A couple of things you may need to know to offer me advise I just received a refurbished Dell laptop with windows 11. I'm using firefox as the browser comcast xfinity is my ISP I subscribe to NordVPN and NordPass

I am having a problem maintaining a connection to firefox.

I can look on the taskbar and see that I am connected via Comcast and the NordVPN and yet I will have displays of "you are not connected to the internet" or similar wording. If I need to include that, at these times, I look at the task bar and I confirm that I am connected.

In addition to this Windows 11 laptop, I have two active android phones. My Gmail, last I checked on the laptop was displaying vividly inaccurate time stamps to incoming emails. My phones however show the emails with accurate timestamps. (A difference of 4 to 6 hours like EST New York to middle of the Pacific Ocean)

I do have photos of these events, screenshots of sorts... but they're on the phone. I'm currently using the firefox browser to offer this post/question, but I sit in anticipation of it acting erratically. Finally I have downloaded a different browser to use while the firefox issue is being trouble shot.

Rather than add more possibly irrelevant information, I'll send now and let the community ask me questions.

I tried all common troubleshooting steps: deleting cache reinstalling different settings turning off adblocker/vpn disabled efficiency in task manager and set it permanently to off in FF

I used to have 1000+ tabs in 2016 no issue. I had problem in past with Firefox using 100% CPU which now it is not using only like 50, but memory is getting full 89% i use also large page file on ssd. Problem is even when i restart firefox it is slow with low RAM usage! SO that's not it! Even 5 tabs sometimes it is slow!

It is so damn slow it drives me crazy! I tried also Quantum in past when Firefox has 100% CPU usage bug and it was only tiny bit better but still caused 100% CPU usage!

All other browsers are anti user cannot even stop Autoplay literal terrorist Firefox is only normal browser unfortunately performance compare to 2016 got absolutely abysmal! I had this problem even in-between reinstals of OS so it doesn't seem it is me. I play demanding games no issues on my PC...

For the last day I've been having a problem with FF slow to load. I've tried the troubleshoot mode with little change. When it does load I can have problems with certain web sites loading e.g. Youtube, MSNBC, AOL mail etc. It's never consistent. The cache is clean and I've saved all the relevant cookies, I checked my internet provider and they are having no problems and I don't seem to be having any internal hdw issues e.g. ethernet cable connections etc. I reinstalled FF-not a clean install and seemed to help for a time. Do I have any options other than a refresh? I don't seem to be having the same issues with Edge or Chrome. All W11 updates are current. I look forward to anyone's comments.

For the past few weeks Firefox has been crashing and freezing often. Crashes are worst when trying to access Protonmail, which almost always crashes the tab instantly. Freezes happen most often when browsing Reddit, and also when watching Youtube, but crashes and freezes can happen on almost any website.

I have tried changing profiles, refreshing and uninstalling/reinstalling, but the problem persists and seems to be getting worse over time.

Here are some recent crash reports:

Will be grateful if someone can help me get to the bottom of this Thanks

After installing v133.0.3 of Firefox for Mac, I can no longer log in to my ASUS router. Were there security changes behind the scenes that could have caused this failure? I can still connect to my router using Safari and all other connections work fine.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and suggestions.

When I click on Firefox and the to my email it says there is a problem with my internet. My internet is up and running fine. I have done everything it says Firefox can't connect to the server at mail.yahoo.com.

I know little to nothing about computers. My Mozilla account says it is disconnected whenever I come online. I do not manually disconnect ever. Keeps telling me that it cannot detect proxy even though my proxies are set to off.

Mailfence.com is my email provider. I've been with them for years. Two weeks ago I am suddenly unable to connect with the website. My ISP is Comcast. My next door neighbor also uses Comcast. He can get to mailfence.com just fine. Can you please help with this issue. Comcast has declined to provide any help. Thanks.........Bob Horning

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at healthy.kaiserpermanente.orghttps.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

What does this mean and how do we fix it?

On ubuntu oracular 24.10, when firefox is launched, it tries to open a UDP listening port on all network interfaces which is not acceptable on many levels:

/usr/bin/netstat -tunpevaW|grep firefox udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:48654 0.0.0.0:* 1000 881247 178766/firefox

Is this behavior specific to Ubuntu or is it implemented by design? This must be a no go by design: if it needs a UDP port for some reason, it has to open it on the **loopback interface (127.0.0.1)** only.

So I started using Firefox on my older and newer laptops, but I've noticed that on my older laptop it has started giving me the message "You must log in to this network before you can access the internet", although I am already signed in on my Mozilla account there too. My newer laptop has had no issues for the record. Both systems are running windows 11, both have the same account that I am using, etc. If it makes any difference, my older laptop is using an ethernet cable whilst the newer one is connected via Wi-Fi. When I ran into this issue yesterday on my old laptop, the issue somehow resolved itself after I created a bugzilla account, although I am unsure if this was coicidence, so now I am confused why the issue has showed up again. Awaiting any kind of help or advice, thank you.
