Firefox, Satellite and Timeouts
I have experienced a few problems with firefox, satellite internet connection and webpage time outs. To fix this problem you need to goto the url bar in firefox and goto about:config page. A special config menu for firefox will show up and a search for timeout will display a dozen or so options. network.http.keep-alive.timeout is the entry that needs it’s value increased. I changed it from the default 300 to 1500 and the problem went away.
