Related: About this forumIt is so irritating that I can't get to DU without shutting down my VPN.
This doesn't happen ALL the time and ONLY happens with Firefox. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
I have no issues with any other sites or addresses.

Weird, I have an Avast VPN that I use for all exterior connections. Never an issue.

Opera has a built in VPN....have you tried using this?

I have used Firefox forever. I like it. I can actually use the vpn using Google, but I just hate doing so.
And the frustrating part is that it's only a part time thing. Many times the vpn/firefox works fine here. Go figure.

Probably an ISP problem, as I am at the last exit off the Internet highway....on a good day.
