How can I prevent Firefox from starting in Offline Mode when there is no internet connection?
Hey!
When I fire up my laptop from standby it takes some time before the wireless internet connection is established. If i am too quick and open Firefox before that happens, it automatically goes into Offline Mode, which I hate a lot.
Is there any way to disable this behaviour?
I have already tried everything mentioned here: http://superuser.com/questions/208146/can-firefoxs-offline-mode-be-disabled Also I found this addon, which unfortunately does not work with Firefox 11: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/disable-automatic-offline-mana/

That shouldn't happen in Firefox 4 or later. You should just get a page not found or server not found message.
Can you check the following setting?
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste offline and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Look for network.manage-offline-status and reset it to False (either double-click or right-click/reset).
Does that work?
Hi jscher2000, thanks for your fast reply :)
Unfortunately your advice does not help me since I have already tried that as mentioned on the first linked page.
