Of all the applications I use, no other application fails to stay on line, no other application has automatic shift to off line and manual shift to on line. MSIE never required me to select line mode, it just loaded the file, web page or whatever I directed it to. Konqueror lacks line mode selection without me missing it.
Other applications find restored Internet connection & resume data transmission but FF3 switches off line during use and requires manual shft to on line. If I disconnect intentionally, reconnection results in other applications resuming operation but FF3 requires manual switch to on line. FF3 disconnects even while Internet connection continues. Again I have disconnected from FF3 and removed it from my computers. Whatever is intention of FF3 designers is not important to me, this FF3 feature is wrong, not needed and cause to abandon use of FF. Other users will think same as I do. Since first available pre release, FF3 in Kubuntu has persisted in switching off line, while all other applications continued to use Sierra AC875 cellular modem to Internet. -- Offline mode not defeatable in FF3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/205169 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
