Devices are not sync-ing even if I am able to sign into the same Firefox account individually across each device.

I signed into Sync across 3 devices. When I visit about:preferences?entrypoint=menupanel#sync in one device, the other 2 devices are not shown. Clicking "Connect another device" does not do anything even if I've signed in across other devices. However, going to "Manage Account" brings me to accounts.firefox.com and shows me all 3 devices when I expand "Devices & apps".

So I know that all my devices are linked to my account, but it's like they don't see each other. Pressing "Sync now" does nothing, and it says my last sync was January 1. I just installed Firefox across 2 of the devices today. The Synced Tabs sidebar is also empty.

I checked about:sync-log, and I've been getting this error: ERROR Sync encountered an error: Error: Can't sync: Network is offline

Clearly, my network is online as I am able to post this. Firefox Sync's service status is also UP/AVAILABLE. Not sure what else could be wrong here.
