Why is it when I click on my Firefox browser it says, "This Website is offline"? It works but not like it used to. What do I do?

This is what I get onscreen when I click on my Firefox browser:

This website is offline

No cached version is available What's wrong? The most likely causes: 

   The server is down for maintenance
   There may be a network problem
   The site may be experiencing excessive load


Retry for a live version of the site What's CloudFlare?

It is possible that the server is down or otherwise has problems.

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page that doesn't require authentication (log in) to access it?

You can try to see if you can access the page via a site like Google Translate with a random source language.
