I have a Linksys router on my network with the address 192.168.1.5. This router does not use a user id for sign but does use a password. Other browsers will let me sign in with a blank user id and my password. Firefox will not. This true for both my Windows 10 machine and my Mac Book Pro. Please fix this!!

Has the correct password been entered? There is no reason for this. All the browser does is send information out and display what comes back.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

You can try a Form Filling add-on.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
