Deutsche Welle is Germany's international broadcaster. I can no longer access it using Firefox 110.0.1 (64-bit) I can access it using Chrome and Edge. I have disabled my ad blocking software, but nothing from any Deuesche Welle link will load, in English or German on Firefox.
Here is the link to news stories:

Here's a link to a specific story:
https://www.dw.com/en/driest-winter-sea ... a-64930384
neither open in Firefox on Windows 10. Do they work for you?
Any idea what the problem is or how I can fix it?
Thanks!
Can't access site, but is accessible with Chrome & Edge

No problem loading that story here. The headline reads: "Nature and Environment Europe, How to combat winter droughts and water shortages".
Have you tried starting Firefox in Mozilla Troubleshooting Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode

You might see if you can ping the server. Open a Windows DOS (or cmd) window and enter the following:
c:\>ping www.dw.com
c:\>ping www.dw.com
I often take a long windy road to my destination. Upon arrival, I wonder how I missed the shortcut.

This is just too weird. Several hours after failing to access the Deutsche Welle site with Firefox, even though Chrome and Edge were able to access it, I tried once again and to my shock/delight the links opened.
