In Firefox browser I was trying to export a report to excel 2007, the report contains 400K rows with 10 columns but it failed due to socket timeout error. (In 10th minute Timeout error will come)

Its working fine in chrome browser.

I have tried below ways to solve but it didn't help. 1. from about:config I have disabled TO. 2. Installed "Table to Excel" add-ons. 3. Create new download folder and reset that folder (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-download-or-save-files)

Can anyone help me out ?

Are you downloading using just Firefox, a download add-on, download manager?

This download manager works separately from the browser. The browser tells it what to download, and off it goes.
