Overview

Historically, Firefox and other Mozilla-based products have not handled disconnected operation, flaky network conditions, or network configuration changes well. Several extensions help to ease some of these problems.

Low-hanging fruit

  • Do not discard cached content when we have a network connection failure.
  • Automatically reload PAC file when changing networks (or at least reload the PAC file when we encounter a network connection failure).

Nice to have

  • Detect offline/online state changes from OS, and put browser in offline/online mode.
