Any success in other browsers or from other computers?

Also, your Firefox identified itself to the forum as version 57. As you may know, the current versions of Firefox are:

(Note for 64-bit Windows users: How to switch from 32-bit to 64-bit Firefox)

If something is holding you back from upgrading Firefox, please let us know so we can suggest solutions or workarounds. Version 57 is not secure.

Are you using a link to a specific server that might no longer be available or are you using an IP address?

If you use an IP address then try to append the port number (:443 for a secure connection).

If you use a bookmark then navigate to the web page starting with the main page or the sign in page in case there is a problem with this bookmark.

You can install as many or as few browsers as you like. You already have Edge and probably Internet Explorer 11 (or you can easily add IE, which is useful for sites that require Java or Silverlight). You can install Google Chrome, Opera, whatever you like. For testing purposes, the more the merrier.
