This article is about Firefox/Mozilla Suite randomly having problems connecting to or loading websites. If Firefox/Mozilla Suite has problems loading any website, read Error loading any website.
If Firefox/Mozilla Suite can successfully load some websites but not others, read Error loading some websites.

  • The site may be down or experiencing difficulties. Try loading the site from another computer or browser to see if this is the case.
  • If you enabled network.http.pipelining (a "tweak" designed to improve page loading time), disable it in about:config by typing "pipelining" in the filter and right-clicking all entries and choosing Reset. (If you set this preference by editing the "user.js" file, remove this edit.)
  • You may have problems with your domain name service (DNS).
  • Try disabling IPv6.
  • Perform step 5 of the standard diagnostic to determine if an extension is the cause of your problems. If that doesn't help, perform the full standard diagnostic.
  • If the previous points didn't help or don't apply, try the other articles in Error loading websites.
