I can't get broadband & even worse my dialup b.width is down to about 30Kb/s. Firefox often times out waiting for resopnse even from fast sites like Google.
Please, how do I lengthen the timeout setting for Firefox?
Many thanks Stan.

1. Type about:config in the address bar as if it is a regular URL
2. Type timeout in the Filter field
3. The values of network.http.connect.timeout and network.http.request.timeout are in seconds. Make them larger to suit your connection.

Re: How can I set Firefox timeout for slow internet connecti
Looks like the value name changed.
I try `network.http.connection-timeout` and `network.http.response.timeout`
what about `network.http.connection-retry-timeout` and `network.http.request.max-start-delay`?
