There are some moments when Firefox stop working for 3 - 60 sec. Now i'm starting to think that is a problem with upload... Right now when i write this, Firefox is trying to upload the screen shots that I make to show you the problem with the upload, and it can not upload the photo, the circle is spinning round... Maybe if you can contact me on my email i will send you the screen shots.

I tried again to send you pictures, but this time copying the address in Brave, to see if he uploads pictures. And I seem to have succeeded. Now i write you from Brave. Please look to screen shots and tell me what can i do. Thank you, Adrian

When you type a new web address and click on GO button, until the site appear in the window, a blue dot is moving horizontally to show that the site is loading. The time between the push on GO button and the moment when site appear is sometimes too long (3-60 sec) even for google.com.

But now i think it is from the profile that i selected when Firefox started. My preferred profile do this delay, and if i restart Firefox and chose another profile when i test the speed I get a good upload speed. So maybe it is something with my preferred profile ...

I do this speed test comparative with Brave even without the router, connected direct to net (with my preferred profile). See picture with results attached. It is interesting to notice that my router cut 20Mb (from 70Mb to 50Mb). So I don't know what is with my profile, but I think this is the culprit.
