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 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?
Firefox doesn’t block http at all
Try the Firefox Developer version. No addons.
EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions. While I was investigating I ended up looking and had a proxy issue. Obviously a problem on my part.
That would kill development, because accessing http services locally is something pretty much only developers do. What is the error message?

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

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.
