Hi. Since FF v103 it seems, when working with a VPN, and then trying to use also a browser extension VPN, it either does not or does not connect until after 45s. Before it was immediate. It works in all other browsers (incl FF before v103). So this is a recent change in FF that harms normal VPN connections. I found out by trial and error, that changing the port of the VPN extension to 443 and disabling and enabling the extension and going back to v103 from v103.0.1 helped, but that should not be like that. So something has been broken in the latest v103.0.1 - please kindly look into it. Thank you!

There never were any problems before, with the same set of add-ons, in FF or any other browser. Hence, it is clear this is related to the latest FF version.

Now FF v105+ even crashes on double VPN...

Has nothing to do with the vpn provider as it works fine in other browsers and it worked fine in FF before the latest versions. It works fine in FFv102.3.0(esr)64bit, except on port 80 (but with 443 fine), see what I wrote above. Thx for fixing.
