    I just wish they’d stop blocking http requests on lan addresses honestly.

    Thanks for the suggestions. While I was investigating I ended up looking and had a proxy issue. Obviously a problem on my part.

      Firefox doesn’t block http at all

        Try the Firefox Developer version. No addons.

          That would kill development, because accessing http services locally is something pretty much only developers do. What is the error message?

            Unable to connect

            Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.2.210.

            The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
            If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
            If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox Developer Edition is permitted to access the web.
            

            I don’t see an error in the log about the specific page I am trying to access, but another had a link to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/https-only-prefs?utm_source=mozilla&utm_medium=firefox-console-errors&utm_campaign=default&as=u

              I don’t think they ware going to start disabling http. Http is needed in a lot of cases to get https plus there are still use cases for http like testing.

              Have you fired up Wireshark and looked at what port it is connecting to?

              And of course adding an exception or turning it off doesn’t work either.

                Perhaps a bug then? AFAIK, “developer edition” is basically just nightly.

      Pretty sure you have an addon doing that, because Firefox doesn’t.

        Firefox Developer with no addons

      Do you have standard Firefox with default options that does this? This has not been my experience.

      You could try out with a new profile if it works out the same.

        I was trying to use the Firefox Developer version. Just straight up refused.
