Mozilla Firefox "unable to connect"? Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at en-us.start3.mozilla.com


  • The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few

moments.

  • If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network

connection.

  • If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure

that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

That is what I get right when I open up to Mozilla. I tried clicking "Try Again"

Is it just your home page that is having that problem? Or is it all pages on Firefox?

If it is on all pages, This can be caused by a firewall blocking internet access to Firefox. See Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet. That link has a list of popular firewalls and how to configure them to work with Firefox.

Also see Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can

Does Internet Explorer not work? If so, see Firefox and other browsers can't load websites
