Is there a way to prevent Firefox from checking "work offline"?

If I open Firefox before I am connected to the internet or if I try to do something when I have been dropped from the internet "work offline" is automatically checked. It is easy to fix but annoying. Is there a way to turn off this function?

Create a new Boolean pref with the name network.manage-offline-status and set the value to false.

Right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.

Name: network.manage-offline-status
Value: false

I got this advice:

Right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.

Name: network.manage-offline-status
Value: false

It doesn't work. Oh, well. It's just an irritation, not a real problem.
